By Francesco Guarascio and Robin Emmott BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Turkey will help stem the flow of migrants to Europe in return for cash, visas and renewed talks on joining the EU in a deal struck on Sunday that the Turkish prime minister called a "new beginning" for the uneasy neighbours. Leaders of the 28 European Union states met Turkish premier Ahmet Davutoglu in Brussels on Sunday evening to give their collective political blessing to an agreement hammered out by diplomats over the past few weeks. A key element is 3 billion euros ($3.2 billion) in EU aid for the 2.2 million Syrian refugees in Turkey, intended to raise living standards and so persuade more to stay put rather than attempt often perilous crossings to the Greek islands and the EU.

BRUSSELS (AP) — European Union leaders eager for Turkey's help in the migrant crisis cautioned against promising too much to their often reluctant partner at a summit in Brussels Sunday, even as Turkey's prime minister declared the beginning of a new era for relations between the two sides. French President Francois Hollande said Sunday that the EU will need to monitor Turkey's commitments "step-by-step" to help end Syria's political crisis, fight terrorism and deal with the migrants crisis. He said any funds of a 3 billion euros ($3.2 billion) package to help Turkey deal with the migrants on its territory will be released progressively as the commitments are checked. "For the moment, there is this 3 billion that has been freed up and it will be released bit by bit along with the commitments of Turkey," Hollande said upon his departure from the summit. Also part of the new approach toward Turkey are EU promises to make haste with easing visa restrictions and fast-tracking Turkey's EU membership. In return, Ankara must tighten border security and take back some migrants who don't qualify for asylum in Europe. "I want there to be an agreement so that Turkey takes on commitments, Europe supports it, and the refugees can be welcomed," Hollande said. Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said he was "thankful to all European leaders for this new beginning, which is not just a beginning of a meeting but the beginning of a new process, which is very important for the future of our common bond in Europe." According to the International Organization for Migration, almost 900,000 people fleeing conflict and poverty in the Middle East, Africa and Asia have entered Europe this year seeking sanctuary or jobs. More than 600,000 have entered through Greece, many after making the short sea crossing from Turkey. More than 2 million refugees from Syria also live in Turkey, but according to Amnesty International, only around one in 10 are being helped by the government. The rest fend largely for themselves. Even if support for closer relations with Turkey has often been lukewarm at best in many of the EU member states, the refugee crisis has forced a drastic revision of relations with Ankara. "Turkey is right to expect that the EU provides relief," said German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Others though pointed out that any aid had to be offset by Turkish commitments on reform and respect for human rights. EU President Donald Tusk put it straight to Davutoglu during the opening session of the summit. In return for EU aid, he said, "we expect to see an immediate and substantial reduction of irregular migrants arriving to Europe." Furthermore, he added, the EU nations want Turkey "to realize the common objective of coming closer together through reforms, the upholding of the highest standards of human rights and media freedom and the implementation of agreed roadmaps and benchmarks" that are part of the EU membership talks. Belgium's prime minister Charles Michel said Turkey could not be given a "blank check" from the EU to help it handle the roughly 2 million Syrian refugees in the country and added his nation is not ready yet to free up money. And even if Turkey has long sought to join the bloc, Michel said Turkey is "far away from membership" and "there is much progress that needs to be made." The migrant crisis has shaken the EU to its core over the past few months when several member states proved unwilling or unable to deal with the arrival of thousands of needy people on their borders. Tusk said the future of Europe's 26-nation passport-free Schengen travel area, a cornerstone of European unity, was in jeopardy. "The most important one is our responsibility and duty to protect our external borders. We cannot outsource this obligation to any third country. I will repeat this again: without control on our external borders, Schengen will become history," Tusk said. Yet in a recent membership progress report on Turkey, the EU criticized Ankara's interference with its justice system and Turkish government pressure on the media. Last week, two more opposition journalists were jailed in Turkey. EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said that there was enough to bind both sides together. "Turkey and Europe need each other. We are facing the same problems — from the war in Syria to terrorism to the stability or instability for the region . we can be partners. We have to put all the issues we have on the table." ___ Maria Cheng and Jamey Keaten contributed to this article Join the conversation about this story »

Greece's central bank chief called on the country's party leaders on Sunday to maintain their political consensus to help pull Athens itself out of its financial crisis once and for all. The Greek people are weary after six years of punishing austerity, and legislating in painful pension reforms will be the next big test of Tsipras's coalition government, which saw its majority shrink to just three seats this month. "There has been a high degree of consensus when the (bailout) deal was voted in by a big parliamentary majority last July," Greek central bank governor Yannis Stournaras told Mega TV in a statement.

The Balkan Front British troops on the Salonika front, 1916 The Balkan Front was a 900-mile front that stretched from the Isonzo River valley in northeast Italy to the Romanian Black Sea coast. The front consisted of a series of largely separate campaigns. It began with the Serbian Campaign, first between Austria-Hungary and Serbia, and then a second Serbian Campaign that saw Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria both invade Serbia. It expanded to include the Romanian and Bulgarian campaigns as well as the largely independent Italian campaign in the Trentino and Alto Adige. Eventually the various campaigns all coalesced around what came to be called the Macedonian or Salonika Front. In the process it drew in both Greece and Romania on the Allied side and Bulgaria on the side of the Central Powers. In addition, the major combatants, Great Britain, France, and Austria-Hungary and, to a lesser extent, Italy, the Ottomans and Germany, all contributed significant numbers of troops to the forces arrayed on the Macedonian Front. Ostensibly, the purpose of the Balkan campaign was to sever the Berlin to Constantinople railway and to cut off the Ottoman Empire from support by either Austria-Hungary or Germany. A secondary consideration was to relieve pressure on Russia on the Eastern front by tying up large numbers of Austrian-Hungarian troops in the Balkans. Finally, in the event of a dual breakout on both the Balkan and Eastern Fronts, the two Allied armies would be able to encircle the Austrian-Hungarian armies in a broad enveloping movement and destroy them. In reality none of these objectives came to pass and the Balkan Front became yet another stalemate between the Allied and the Central Powers. The Serbian front saw the first outbreak of conflict in World War I when Austrian artillery shelled the Serbian capital of Belgrade. The subsequent Austrian-Hungarian invasion of Serbia was repulsed by the Serbs, which gave the Allies their first battlefield victory of the war. A joint Austrian and Bulgarian campaign in 1915 saw Serbia again invaded, this time from both the north and the east. Against the renewed onslaught, the Serbian Army steadily retreated eventually making its way to the Albanian port of Durazzo where they were evacuated by a joint British and French task force. After additional training and rearmament they were deployed in Macedonia where they participated in the Macedonian/Salonika campaign. Bulgarian campaign, Balkan Front 1915-1918 In 1914 Romania had been formally allied with Austria-Hungary, but when war broke out the Bucharest government had declared its neutrality. Over the summer of 1916, in response to inducements by Great Britain and France that they would support the Romanian annexation of Transylvania from Austria-Hungary, as well as in response to long standing enmity between Romania and Bulgaria, Romania joined the war on the Allied side. The war proved to be a total disaster for Romania. Between August and the end of December 1916, a combined Austrian-Hungarian, German, Bulgarian, and Ottoman force had overrun the regions of Wallachia and Dobruja. More than half of the Romanian army had been captured and an unspecified number killed. Following retraining under a French Expeditionary force commanded by General Henri Berthelot a resupplied Romanian Army, supported by elements of the now disintegrating Russian Army, were able to contain the German drive on Moldova in 1917. The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk and the German advance into the Ukraine left Romania entirely surrounded by the military forces of the Central Powers. Facing certain destruction, the Bucharest government signed the Treaty of Bucharest in 1918 and withdrew from further involvement in World War I. Following the successful offensive on the Macedonian Front that knocked Bulgaria out of the war, Romanian reentered the war of the Allied side on November 10, 1918; one day before the general armistice was announced. Italian forces had intervened in the Balkans even before Italy's entry in World War I. In December 1914, Italy had occupied the port of Vlore in Albania. After it entered the war, Italy expanded its occupation to include southern Albania and northern Epirus. It also organized an army of Albanian irregulars to supplement its own forces. Additionally, the Italians contributed troops to the joint Allied force on the Macedonian front. In the northeast, Italian forces fought a series of bloody battles to seize the Isonzo River and advance into Dalmatia. Italian troops continued their campaign even after the Armistice was announced on November 11. They finally stopped on November 18 with the seizure the city of Fiume and promptly announced, in accordance with the provisions of the 1915 London Treaty, that they were annexing this newly conquered region of Dalmatia. Serbian troops marching to the front line against the Austrians, Bulgaria had historically been at war with the Ottoman Empire and closely allied with Russia. Disappointed at the lack of Russian support during the Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913, Bulgaria gradually moved closer to the Central Powers even if that meant it was now allied with the Ottomans, their traditional enemy. The historical rivalry with Constantinople notwithstanding, Sofia now had more substantial claims over the predominantly Bulgarian populated territories in Serbia, Greece, and Romania, all three of which were now aligned with Great Britain and France. Bulgaria, which already had the largest army in the Balkans, scored a quick series of battlefield triumphs, occupying much of southern Serbia, taking the region of Dobruja from Romania, and advancing into Greek Macedonia. Bulgarian popular support for the war waned rapidly, however, as a result of the extreme economic dislocations caused by the fighting. The Russian Revolution in February 1917 ignited similar sentiments in Bulgaria spreading antiwar and anti-monarchial support among the military and civilian population. In 1915, in response to the collapse of Serbian forces against the combined Bulgarian and Austrian-Hungarian offensives, a joint British-French-Italian force had landed at Salonika, modern day Thessaloniki, to reinforce Serbian forces as well as to establish a base of operations against pro-German Bulgaria. Reinforced by the remnants of the Serbian Army, as well as troops withdrawn from the Allied campaign in Gallipoli, the new front stabilized along the northern Greek border with Macedonia and was referred to as the Macedonian front, although the term Salonika front was used interchangeably. Romanian troops on the march, November 1918 In September 1918, after a prolonged buildup, a joint Allied army consisting of a mix of Italian, British, French, Greek, and Serbian forces, under the command of French General Franchet d'Esperey, broke through along the Macedonian front and began to advance. Bulgarian forces stopped them in Dojran before they could physically occupy any historic Bulgarian territory. By October 1918 they had liberated Serbia and were poised to invade Hungary. The offensive was halted when the Hungarian government offered to surrender and by the subsequent Armistice of November 11. Notwithstanding the victory at Dojran, The Bulgarian Tsar Ferdinand was forced to sue for peace, however, and he agreed to abdicate in favor of his son Boris III. Under the treaty of Neuilly signed in November 1919, Bulgaria lost its Aegean coast (western Thrace) to Greece and nearly all of its Macedonian territory was incorporated into the new state of Yugoslavia. In addition it had to return Dobruja to Romania. The Balkan Front was a relatively minor theater of World War I. No epic battles were fought there, and there were no events that impacted the larger conduct of the war on either the Eastern or Western Fronts. The strategy of using it as a launching point for a general offensive into Austria-Hungary, and to coordinate the advance with a similar breakout of Russian troops on the Eastern front, was sound military logic, but after 1915, Russian troops on the Eastern front were unable to stage a broad breakout and the troop strength on the Macedonian front was never sufficient to stage their own breakout and create a credible pincer movement against Austrian-Hungarian forces until 1918. By then Russia was out of the war and the war on the Eastern Front had long since been settled. -- This feed and its contents are the property of The Huffington Post, and use is subject to our terms.

Thousands of refugees are continuing to board boats to Europe everyday despite the worsening winter weather At Emre’s boat shop in central Izmir, one of Turkey’s major ports, you can’t turn around without bumping into a pile of inflatable rubber boats. On this day there are 16 stacked in beige boxes, all numbered with the same inscrutable code, SK-800PLY, and all newly delivered from China. If Emre’s maths is right, all of them will be discarded on a Greek beach within a couple of days. For Emre’s shop is where you can buy boats that take refugees to Europe – and where they are still being sold at a rate of nearly a dozen a day. “In the summer we were selling more,” Emre tells a potential Syrian customer. “But right now we’re still selling six of the cheaper boats every day, and five of the more expensive ones.

Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania opposed the mandatory quotas for redistributing migrants from Italy and Greece, but were outvoted at a meeting of EU interior ministers in September. Slovakia, which is due take in 802 migrants under the scheme, immediately said it would challenge the decision, arguing it had no power to keep migrants in if they wish to move on to Germany and other richer EU member states.

Yes, inequality is getting worse. Yes, it is bad for economic growth, because it stunts consumer demand. And yes, even the rich ought to worry about the way they are taking an ever-increasing share of society's wealth and income, according to a weighty new analysis of inequality in the richest, developed economies from Morgan Stanley. It's not all gloom, according to Morgan Stanley senior economist Carmen Nuzzo. (This is an investment bank, of course, so they're looking for opportunities as well as dysfunction.) But the report contains a gloomy thread for those who worry that Thomas Piketty might be right. Nuzzo et al. write: ... protracted, inequality can disrupt business models, fuel political discontent and trigger policy missteps. This could damage the growth potential. This risk is high in DM [developed markets], where inequality within countries is increasing, in contrast to inequality between countries globally, which is diminishing. HERE IS MORGAN STANLEY'S NEW RANKING OF THE MOST-EQUAL, AND LEAST-EQUAL, RICH COUNTRIES: THE HIGHLIGHTS: * INEQUALITY IN THE US IS ABOUT THE SAME AS PORTUGAL, ITALY, GREECE AND SPAIN — countries that in Europe are regarded as economic basket cases. * THERE IS A WIDE GULF BETWEEN GERMANY AND FRANCE, the two big economies that neighbour each other at the heart of Europe. The UK sits between them. * THOSE CLICHES ABOUT NORTHERN EUROPE AND SCANDINAVIA? Basically true. * INTERNET ACCESS IS A GOOD PROXY FOR INEQUALITY. The more people have it, the more equal a society is likely to be. INEQUALITY HAS BECOME WORSE MORE RECENTLY, MORGAN STANLEY SAYS: HERE IS HOW MUCH THE TOP 10% TAKE OF EACH NATION'S TOTAL WEALTH AND ANNUAL INCOME: Morgan Stanley says that increasing inequality in the rich countries is killing off their middle classes. "Faced with stagnant wages, high debt and rising costs, the middle class is eroded by rising inequality," the authors write. They cite increasing childcare costs and payments for health and retirement as the main factors that hurt middle-class wealth retention.
