More recently they've wanted a buffer with regard to all the refugees fleeing the middle east (mainly Syrians). If Turkey were a member there would be a stronger argument for spreading out all of the refugees that made it to Turkey among more of the other EU countries. Instead they'd rather keep that buffer and pay Turkey to handle those fleeing war.

The Europeans paid major € to the Turks to keep ME refugees in Turkey. Turkey is now sending them back to their home areas, mainly in Syria and Iraq.

The Turks have been a threat to Europe for almost a thousand years. They sided with the central powers in WWI, invaded the Europe before that before being kicked out and stomped by the Winged Hussars from Poland, mass killings of Turks and Greeks, assisted the Germans in WWII…they have no business in Europe

So should Germany be kicked out for the holocaust? The Armenian genocide happened over 100 years ago.

??? Are you drinking?
Your post makes absolutely zero sense. By your dim-witted and challenged logic Germany, the former crown lands of Austria-Hungary, Italy, Bulgaria, and Romania have no business in Europe either.
