Syria's foreign minister: Aleppo, not Raqqa is our priority
In a rare interview, the Syrian foreign minister Walid al-Muallem tells Newshour's Owen Bennett-Jones that the Syrian government will prioritise taking back Aleppo, al-Bab and Idlib. After this, he says that they will "maybe" target Raqqa, the so-called Islamic State's stronghold in Syria.
