Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz has criticized Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan for releasing new waves of migrants into Europe. According to Kurz, Erdogan’s decision to release hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees into Europe was an attack on both Greece and the European Union.
He added Austria will not accept any new migrants from the Middle East.
Last week, Turkey unleashed a large mass of migrants into Europe and accused the EU of failing to support Ankara in the Syrian conflict. EU officials argued Turkey is now in violation of a 2016 agreement on fighting mass migration.

“It is necessary that everybody stands by its commitments and fulfill its commitments,” stated French Interior Minister Christophe Castaner. “All sides must continue the proper application of the 2016 agreement, and we do not give in on this issue.”
Austrian leaders have said all migrants seeking entry will be contained in detention camps and deported.
