Foreign Ministry: Türkiye not a refugee camp or border guard for any nation

Türkiye's Foreign Ministry says the country will neither be a refugee camp nor a border guard for any country, and it will in no circumstances assume third countries' international obligations

A Foreign Ministry spokesperson says in a statement that Türkiye has already been hosting the largest number of refugees in the world for the last eight years.

Saturday's statement came after news reports in the UK press said that Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, who is one of the prime ministerial candidates, may demand an agreement with Türkiye similar to the one done with Rwanda on asylum partnership. In April, the UK and Rwanda reached a $142-million deal that would see asylum seekers attempting to enter the UK being sent to the East African country for resettlement.

“Besides, we had already shared our position publicly last year following similar news published on Afghan refugees.”
