EU will cut some money for #Turkey as ties sour
The EU leaders' chairman, Donald Tusk, said the bloc had agreed in two days of talks in Brussels to cut or reroute some of the 4.4 billion euros ($5.2 bln) Ankara was due to get as part of its accession talks in 2014-20.
"It was a substantive discussion. We want to keep the door open to Ankara, but the current reality in Turkey is making this difficult," Tusk told a news conference.
Germany has seen its ties with Turkey particularly strained and Chancellor Angela Merkel called last month for a tougher stance on Ankara as she campaigned for re-election at home.
