Small step made at EU-Turkey migrant summit says Renzi

(ANSA) - Brussels, March 8 - Italian Premier Matteo Renzi said early on Tuesday that only modest progress was made at the European Union-Turkey summit on the refugee-migrant emergency.
    "A small step forward has been made on migrants coming from Turkey but there's still lots of work to do, lots to discuss," Renzi said as he left the extraordinary summit. The EU and Turkey say they have agreed the broad principles of a plan to ease the crisis, but added that talks to reach a final agreement will continue, ahead of an EU meeting on 17-18 March. The EU has said that all undocumented economic migrants arriving in Greece from Turkey will be returned. Turkey wants the EU to accept a recognised Syrian refugee for each Syrian returned and has also called for an extra three billion euros in aid for 2018 to cope with the crisis on top of the three billion the union has already pledged.
