Question

In March 2016, the European Union agreed an arrangement with what country to reduce an increasingly overwhelming flow of migrants to EU countries?

Answer 1

Turkey
Hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers were transiting through Turkey to reach EU soil. The agreement was that irregular migrants attempting to enter Greece would be returned to Turkey, and Ankara would take steps to prevent new migratory routes from opening. In exchange, the EU agreed to resettle Syrian refugees from Turkey on a one-to-one basis, reduce visa restrictions for Turkish citizens, pay 6 billion euros in aid to Turkey for Syrian migrant communities, update the customs union, and re-energize stalled talks regarding Turkey’s accession to the EU.
