"Mr President, since we are holding a free debate, I read Mr Ecevit’s statement following Turkey’s acceptance as a candidate country of the European Union in this morning’s
. In it he said, “the borders of Europe will inevitably move more and more eastwards….they will encompass Central Asia and eventually the whole of the Asian continent”. In his second statement, he brought up the Cyprus issue and stressed that Turkey would not brook any discussion of the current state of affairs in Cyprus, thereby ignoring what was said in the Helsinki decision.
I should like to ask the Commissioner, given that the Commission enthusiastically supported candidate status for Turkey, if these statements are in keeping with the spirit in which the Council and the Commission recommended that Turkey be granted candidate status and if this is an indication of how Turkey will conduct itself in future."@en1
