By Francesco Guarascio BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union will set no minimum on the number of Syrian refugees its member states are willing to take from Turkey in a resettlement scheme to be unveiled on Tuesday, a senior EU official said on Monday.

It will mention no number, the official said, in its plan for deserving cases to be flown directly from Turkey to the EU -- an omission that could disappoint Turkish leaders.
