Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened on Thursday to send the Syrian refugees to other countries since his country is allegedly on the brink of losing patience over the massive flow of migrants from the Arab republic.

Speaking at a meeting with young businessmen, he said that the United Nations should advise other countries to accept the refugees, not only Turkey threatening to send the refugees to these countries.

“If the air campaign in Syria continues, the number of [new] refugees can reach 600,000… How many refugees other countries have accepted — 100, 300, 500, some of them, one.” he stated, as Sputnik repots.

“We do not have the word ‘idiot’ written on our foreheads. We endure this, but when our patience is over, we will do what is needed” he said adding: “Someone is trying to blame us by making public content of negotiations. We strongly defended there the rights of Syrian refugees and want the European Union to meet its obligations”.
