Many people want to return (to Iraq) it seems, but found themselves in such a situation that they cannot return," Bebekir said.
The Kurdish politician said that there is no discussion in helping migrants settle in European countries.
"Negotiations are underway with all parties, both with Poland and Belarus ...They (migratns) are in the cold, in the forest, we are talking about the death of people. If steps are not taken, people may die," Bebekir added.
