600,000 refugees may arrive at Turkish border
2016-02-09
Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus said Monday there was a possibility that 600,000 refugees would soon arrive at the Turkish border, Anadolu Agency reported.
Might be true, or he might be squeezing the EU for a few billion more Euros...
“It is estimated that a wave of 600,000 refugees may come to the Turkish border soon in a worst case scenario,” he said. “Our first goal is to host these refugees outside of Turkey.”

Earlier Monday, the Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Germany and Turkey had taken in most refugees from the Syrian crisis, with Turkey now hosting more than 2.5 million Syrians. Germany took in 1.1 million refugees last year, the most of any EU nation.

Last week, the EU approved a 3 billion euro ($3.33 billion) aid package for Turkey to help care for the world’s largest refugee population.
