EU poised to extend more aid to Jordan and Turkey

EU President Donald Tusk leaders of member states will discuss more aid for Turkey, Jordan and other countries with large number of refugees to reduce the odds the exiles will try to resettle in Europe.

 

Tusk said Thursday that Europe must be ready for "all possible scenarios" that could cause "a new massive exodus of refugees."

 

Tusk is hosting an EU summit in Brussels where leaders are scheduled to discuss the situation in Syria, Turkey and other countries. Turkey is now home to about 2 million Syrians who have fled fighting in their homeland.
