EU leaders near a deal with Turkey over migrant crisis

The European Union and Turkey have failed to reach a final agreement on how to deal with the migrant crisis but have agreed some broad principles following a lengthy summit.

The deal, which could be finalized next week, will see irregular migrants arriving in Greece returned to Turkey.  However for each migrant returned, Turkey wants the EU to accept a recognized refugee from Syria and offer more funding.   There are also plans to speed up the process by which Turkish citizens can travel within Europe freely.  

European Council President Donald Tusk says the proposed deal sends a  clear message that the days of irregular migration to Europe are over.   

Alexander Betts, Professor of Forced Migration and International Affairs  at Oxford University says the deal is a generous one for Turkey.
