NATO says no Aegean mission end date

There is no fixed date for the NATO migrant mission in the Aegean Sea to end, an Alliance official said Friday, after Turkey called for the mission's completion "by the end of the year" because it had "reached its goal."


"There is no end date for NATO's activity in the Aegean sea ... (but) NATO will continue to keep this mission under regular review," the official, who did not wish to be named, told AFP in Brussels.

The mission referred to was launched in February to tackle the huge flow of refugees and migrants to Greece on board rickety boats from Turkey.
