Turkey, Germany, France, UK discuss Syria, migration crisis in video call

During a videoconference held on Tuesday, the leaders of Turkey, Germany, France and UK discussed the humanitarian aid to Idlib, the situation of asylum seekers, Turkish-EU ties and the joint action against deadly coronavirus outbreak, according to the information gained from the presidential sources.

Turkish, German, British and French leaders discussed the Syria crisis and migrant issue as well as joint action against coronavirus in a videoconference, Turkish presidency said on Tuesday.

In a statement, the presidency said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson also discussed methods of humanitarian aid to Syria's northwestern Idlib province.
The virus emerged in Wuhan, China last December, and has since spread to at least 150 countries and territories. The World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic.

Out of over 190,000 confirmed cases, the death toll now exceeds 7,500, while more than 80,800 have recovered, according to Worldometer, a website that compiles new case numbers.

Turkey currently has 47 confirmed cases, most of which were contracted through foreign visits to the U.S., EU, or Saudi Arabia. To date there have been no deaths.

Among the other topics of discussion were the issues pertaining to Syrian crisis and humanitarian aid to Syria's northwestern Idlib, situation of asylum seekers, latest developments in Libya and Turkish-EU ties.

Last month, Turkey opened its borders for asylum seekers seeking a way to Europe, accusing the EU of failing to keep promises under the 2016 migrant deal.

Ankara also warned that due to incessant attacks on civilians in Idlib, Syria, a million refugees were moving toward Turkey's borders.

With 3.7 million Syrian migrants in Turkey already, more than any other country in the world, Ankara says it cannot absorb another refugee wave.
