Yeah, i kind of heard that thingy...i don't think government would agree on anything like that. I heard they would only take back the refugees which can be proven that traveled from Turkey.

Imagine Europe sends every refugee from the world to Turkey.....people would hang Erdoğan in his palace.

Anyways... today i have seen my tax money in the form of a chair.....

People say, "After Merkel saw the golden chairs, she decided not to give money to Turkey".

And this is the chair that Merkel sit on in US....

Erdoğan should have been the president of a Gulf state.

He shouldn't use those chairs. Even if it is historical. It gives the impression Turkey is a rich Arab country. In this world it is always better to play poor even though you have a lot of money. It seems we will only host these Syrians temporarily. @flamer84, how many Syrians are you going to take in your home?
Davutoglu: Turkey 'not a concentration camp' - Al Jazeera English

Turkey is "not a concentration camp", Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said a day after holding talks with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on the refugee crisis.

In a live TV interview on Monday, the Turkish prime minister said his country would not host refugees permanently to appease the European Union, which seeks Turkish cooperation on an action plan to slow down the stream of people into Europe.

"We cannot accept an understanding like 'give us the money and they stay in Turkey'. Turkey is not a concentration camp," Davutoglu said.

"I said this to Merkel too. No one should expect Turkey to turn into a concentration camp where all the refugees stay in," he continued.

Davutoglu said, however, that the discussions with Merkel had resulted in a "positive response" to Turkey’s request for visa liberalisation.

EU incentives

On Sunday, Merkel had hailed as "very promising" progress on an European-driven "action plan" after meeting President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Davutoglu in Istanbul.

She offered Turkey the prospect of support for faster progress on its bid to join the EU in return for cooperation in stopping the flow of refugees and taking back those rejected by Europe.

The German leader also said her country could speed up the path to visa-free travel to the EU for Turkish citizens, bringing the process forward to July 2016 - a year earlier than planned.

Last week, European leaders also offered Turkey financial help in a bid to persuade it to do more to tighten its border security.

"We spoke of three billion euros ($3.4bn) as 'fresh money' but it is not a fixed sum. Our [financial] needs may increase," Davutoglu said, insisting that Europe would have to implement its part of the deal before Turkey would collaborate.

"In the past, the EU got what it wanted, but didn't keep its promises. The visa liberalisation has to take force," he said referring to Turkey's request for visa-free access for Turks to the EU's Schengen zone.

"We demanded the abolishment of the Schengen visa [for Turks] and got a positive response. It will happen in July 2016, negotiations are continuing. Things will become clear at the start of the 2016," he said./quote]
