“Europe wants to pay Turkey to bear the costs of a failed and disastrous US policy. This will not happen” Opinion | OmerOzkizilcik
There is no amount of financial aid that will convince Ankara to open its borders and host Afghan refugees. The EU should recognise the burden on Turkey and extend its hand in help instead of viewing Turkey as a big refugee camp that will host all those wanting to go to Europe. The EU should reconsider its position by thinking about what they would have done today if Turkey had become a EU member state in the early 21st century.
By aiding Turkey in preventing the Afghan refugees from reaching Turkey, the EU will demonstrate solidarity with Turkey, in the interest of both sides. For instance, the EU can partially finance Turkey’s walls and security installations at the border.
