Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel stated that: “The European Union is dependent on Turkey only with regard to the refugee crisis. Turkey makes us dependent on itself over our weakest point. As a matter of fact, Turkey is dependent on us economically but we are not threatening them like they threaten us.”

Remarking that Turkey demanded 3 billion-euro fund from the European Union and was yet to comply with the desired terms and conditions, Michel called for an end to Turkey's EU accession negotiations.

Michel pointed out that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was moving away European values, and that his statements over the past few days are unacceptable as he compared the Netherlands and Germany with the Nazis.

Belgian Prime Minister stressed that: "The refugee deal with Turkey must definitely be questioned. We must work to protect our borders and guarantee the security of Europe."
