16 OCT 15 news article states:  “Turkish leaders accused Europeans on Friday of treating their country shabbily and warned that a new deal with the EU to help stem the flow of migrants to Europe was not completely finalized.”

“Officials in Brussels, where EU leaders agreed overnight to offer Ankara cash, easier visa terms and a “re-energized” consideration of its EU membership bid, voiced cautious optimism that Turkey would do its part to encourage Syrian refugees not to head to Europe and to deter economic migrants from Asia.”
