The announcement of the Turkish Foreign Minister in detail
“While the need to strengthen relations between our country and the EU through mutual efforts is obvious, we do not accept and reject the biased and unrealistic assessments of the EP in the report, which ignore this need with a shallow and visionless approach.
Our primary expectation from the EP is that it should not become a tool on the agenda narrow-minded circleand to show an encouraging attitude towards the EU institutions in order to revive the accession negotiation process. Unfortunately, the EP has so far taken the opposite stance. This attitude of the EP, which tolerates even members of terrorist organizations to nest in the EP and make terrorist propaganda, is not really surprising. Thus, the EP has lost both its credibility and its credibility in the eyes of the Turkish people.
Therefore, the unfounded views in the report that reflect the claims of democracy, rule of law and human rights regarding our country and the narrow-minded efforts of one or two EU members for the Aegean, the Eastern Mediterranean and the Cyprus issue do not benefit us.
Our expectation from the EU is for all EU institutions to fulfill their obligations to Turkey, to revitalize the accession process in this context, to speed up the dialogue on visa liberalization, to start negotiations on updating the Customs Increase cooperation in the fight against terrorism, in particular voluntary humanitarian issues in the context of migration cooperation. It is the implementation of the Readmission Plan.
This report, which assesses Turkey with a shallow perspective instead of encouraging steps to take on these issues, is a new example of the EP’s distancing and ideologically biased stance. it only damages the reputation of the EP “.
