On account of Turkey, it hosts worlds largest number number of refugees.[1] But gets almost no recognition for it.

6 billions of euros EU thought of paying accounts only for a small amount of what it has costed to Turkish taxpayers which are a lot poorer than their, for example, German counterparts.

Yeah, I know. A lot of countries with much less resources and wealth than the EU host a lot more people. Which commendable. And shows that it is purely a lack of pilotical will on behalf of the EU to do more.

And still Erdogan used refugees to gain concessions and favors from the EU.
