Turkey builds refugee readmission centres
The construction of two readmission centres for refugees is underway in Dikili and Cesme Turkey has stepped up its efforts to readmit refugees coming from Greece as part of a deal with the European Union. The agreement, which aims to stem the flow of refugees into Europe, began on Monday. Under the deal, Turkey will take back refugees who crossed into Europe illegally from Turkish soil. For each refugee returned, one already settled in Turkey is to be accepted into the EU. In exchange, the EU has promised to provide Turkey with more financial aid, visa-free travel for its citizens, and to restart negotiations on EU membership. Greek authorities have registered more than 5,000 people since March the 20th. Turkish authorities say the first refugee group to arrive in the country includes around 400 people.
