Turkish president threatens to reopen borders to migrants

Turkey's president has accused the European Union of dishonesty and betrayal, and threatened to remove controls from his country's borders, potentially allowing hundreds of thousands of asylum-seekers and other migrants into Europe.

In his first speech since Thursday's approval in the European Parliament of a non-binding resolution calling on the EU to freeze Turkey's membership talks, Recep Tayyip Erdogan (pictured) told the EU: "We are the ones who feed 3 to 3.5 million refugees in this country. You have betrayed your promises."
