Turkey has spent more than six billion US dollars (€5.36 billion) to assist Syrian refugees on its territory and the financial burden on the country is increasing every day, a Turkish member of Council of Europe, Reha Denemec, warned his colleagues in Strasbourg, Thursday. He added that the international community has contributed six percent of this amount so far, which is "below all expectations." Sir Edward Leigh from the United Kingdom in the same meeting complained about the current practice in the Mediterranean Sea to pick up migrants and bring them to Italy. Instead, he argued, Europe should return them to where they come from, "otherwise more and more will keep coming."
