"It is critical that Ankara should negotiate with its international partners over this humanitarian situation and also that the burden be shared," said Corabatir, fearing a catastrophic scenario if hundreds of thousands of new refugees flooded to the Turkish border to travel to Europe.
Erdogan will pay a state visit to Germany late September and the refugee issue should be one of the priorities on the agenda.
The EU is clearly worried that an economic meltdown in Turkey could spark a new migrant crisis on the continent. Turkey's woes resonate particularly in Germany, its biggest economic partner and home to a Turkish community of 3.5 million population.
The feeling in Ankara is the same since the start of the Syrian conflict: the international community should be more involved in the plight of the refugees that Turkey has been hosting with huge budget for several years.
"We have hosted millions of refugees since the start of the Syrian civil war seven years ago, but it is important that the international community also shares the burden as we are confronted with some currency difficulties which will be eventually resolved," a source at Erdogan's ruling Justice and Development Party told Xinhua.
