Turkey's government was accused on Monday of misleading the European Union about progress made in resettling nearly 400,000 people displaced by the civil war between the army and Kurdish separatists in the 1980s and 1990s.
Human Rights Watch alleged the government had exaggerated the number of people returning to their villages and farms in the southeast of the country last year, just as EU political leaders were deciding whether to invite Turkey to join the EU. "
