The refugee issue has become the best means for Turkey to intimidate Europeans and grab their money. Ankara announces additional measures are needed to keep the refugees, and that the EU allocations worth 500 million dollars are not enough. Turkey explains that some of the European states have closed their borders not to allow refugee entry into their countries, which has caused refugee crowds on the borders.
An agreements was signed in March between the EU and Turkey, providing solution to the refugee issue from Turkey to Greece through the Aegean Sea. Europe has also pledged to allocate 3 billion euros to Turkey for meeting refgugee needs, as well as provide Turkish citizens a free entry into Europe.
