Syria bombings: Erdogan threatens new migrant crisis

"It is inevitable that there will be conditions similar to those of the 2015 migration crisis," is the message sent by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Europe, calling for an end to violence in the Syrian province of Idlib.

Erdogan said 80,000 people were displaced from the province of Indlib because of the bombings of the Syrian regime and Russia. Turkey, he added, cannot manage another wave of immigration from Syria, noting that it is "doing everything it can" in cooperation with Russia to stop those operations.

"We will not carry the burden of 80,000 Syrian immigrants from Turkey's Intlib on their own," he said, according to the Anadolu agency.

He said a Turkish delegation would visit Moscow tomorrow for talks on the Syrian issue. "The outcome (of these talks) will determine our next steps," he added in a speech at an awards ceremony at the Dolmabahce Palace in Istanbul, broadcast on television.

Intlib and some areas of Syria's adjoining provinces are largely controlled by the jihadist organization Hayat Tahir al-Sam (the former al-Qaeda offshoot in Syria) and other Islamist and rebel smaller groups.
