EU talks tough on migrants from Turkey, uneasy over rights
By Alastair Macdonald and Francesco Guarascio BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union hopes a summit with Turkey on Monday can start putting an end to the chaotic arrivals of migrants in Greece and halt their treks through the Balkans toward Germany, diplomats said on Sunday. The meeting in Brussels will set out a tougher position on taking in migrants who reach Greece and formalize the closing of borders against those heading north from there. The EU leaders are also likely to tell Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu of their concern about human rights after the Turkish government seized control of a critical newspaper over the weekend.
