欧盟土耳其就移民协议细节达成共识

European Union leaders said Tuesday they have reached a possible deal with Ankara to return thousands of migrants to Turkey, and that they are confident a full agreement can be reached at a summit next week.

After months of disagreements and increasing bickering among the 28 EU nations, the leaders said they agreed to give Turkey more money to help refugees, swiftly ease visa requirements for Turks and speed up Ankara\'s accession talks in exchange for its help in stemming migration flows to Europe.

All eyes now are on March 17 and the start of a two-day summit to finalize the commitment and agree on a deal that the leaders hope will allow for a return to normalcy at their borders by the end of the year.

Turkey, which is sheltering an estimated 2.7 million Syrians, was reported to be asking for an extra $3.3 billion from the EU, roughly twice the amount already pledged by the 28-member bloc.

欧盟28个成员国数月来围绕移民危机一直存在分歧，争执不断加剧。欧盟领导人说，他们同意向土耳其提供更多资金来帮助难民，迅速采取措施，放松对土耳其公民签证的要求，加快土耳其加入欧盟的谈判，以此换取土耳其的帮助，制止涌向欧洲的移民潮。

目前的关注焦点是3月17日即将召开的两天峰会，会议期间将最后敲定有关协议，欧盟领导人希望，该协议能让他们的边境地区在今年年底之前恢复常态。

土耳其业已接纳了约270万叙利亚难民。据报道，土耳其要求欧盟再提供33亿美元，这个数额是欧盟已承诺提供援助的两倍。
