The number of Syrian refugees in Turkey has exceeded 32 thousand people,
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said.

"We will not close the door to these people - it is open. However more
come, we have to accept all of them. Because we look at this problem from
the position of humanism and humanity," Erdogan said at the UN summit
"Rio +20," 1news.az reports, citing Turkish media.

Today, the official representative of the Turkish Foreign Ministry, Selcuk
Unal, said that there are 32.7 thousand Syrian refugees in the country,
including 12 army generals.
Unal said that Ankara is doing everything it can to put an end to
the instability in Syria. "It is very important for us that the bloodshed stops
as soon as possible. This is important for the people of Syria and
neighboring countries, because, as you know, instability in Syria affects
the situation in the bordering countries," ITAR-TASS quotes his words.
