Is it necessary for the EU to accept Syrian refugees from Turkey?

Despite the mixed EU-Turkey relationship, I think it's in the EU's best interests to set aside political differences or reservations and to accept Syrian refugees from Turkey. After all, the EU has accepted Syrian refugees via other routes, some in desperate situations, and therefore should practice what it preaches regarding inclusive society and accept Syrian refugees regardless of where they are from. Of course, if there is a safe space for the refugees in Turkey, that should first be considered (in no way should the conflict in Syria be a route for those fleeing to enter the EU, regardless of their situation). Of course, one you open the flood gates it can be difficult to close them (how many people do you allow in?), but to an extent the EU must take an 'act now and strategise later' policy as there are thousands of people in desperate need and countries within the EU could help solve that by offering those fleeing Syria the possibility of a better life – there are high-skill workers.
