Refugee Crisis: Turkey forces illegal mass return on refugees

ISTANBUL: Amnesty International revealed a major flaw in the EU-Turk deal over Syrian Refugees causing further suffering and pain to the already miserable refugees.

Turkey is forcefully deporting hundreds back to the war struck Syria including children and women in need of immediate medical attention. So far Turkey has sent thousand back to Syria where the war has left the country in a devastating shape.

John Dalhuisen, Amnesty International’s Director for Europe and Central Asia stated that, “The large-scale returns of Syrian refugees we have documented highlight the fatal flaws in the EU-Turkey deal. It is a deal that can only be implemented with the hardest of hearts and a blithe disregard for international law.”

Turkey hasn’t replied to the statement and nor did any of the European nations whereas Turkey currently houses more than 3 million migrants which is higher than any other state.

Migrants arriving illegally in Greece would be sent back to Turkey from 4 April, they are either to apply for an asylum or return to Turkey if their claim is rejected.
