ARK News: German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Friday that Germany is ready to support Turkey's efforts to build temporary shelters for those fleeing the bombing of regime and Russian forces in Idlib.

Merkel added in a joint press conference with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, that her country "can provide funds for this humanitarian action", according to the German "DW" network.

For his part, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned at the press conference that (400) thousands of displaced people from Idlib are heading towards the Turkish borders. He accused the European Union of having “not fulfilled its obligations yet under the Refugee Agreement” concluded with Turkey in 2016.

The location of the shelters for Idlib IDPs has not been determined by the German chancellor, nor by the Turkish president.
