brussels - Now the number of refugees from Turkey reached Europe has declined dramatically, there is no reason for NATO's naval mission in the Aegean Sea. That said, the Turkish Defense Minister Fikri Isik.

Isik was at a meeting with his colleagues from other NATO countries. He said this is because Turkey refugees prevented from making the crossing to Europe, NATO does not have to extend the mission beyond December and NATO ships no longer have to patrol off the Turkish coast. ' This was a temporary mission and purpose of this temporary mission is accomplished. ''
