"Mr President, last week I saw on Danish television Parliament’s President in close communication with the member of his own party who is now the sitting President of the European Council, and I imagine, without being able to lip-read, that there were two related subjects that might have occupied these two colleagues. The first was Turkish accession to the EU, and the second was the issue of referendums. I shall not go into details regarding the first point but merely observe that the Turkish Government has now obtained a very effective lobbyist in the form of the United States of America’s bellicose President who gets on the ’phone to both parties. What, however, was the problem for the Prime Minister and what emerged at our group meeting in Copenhagen was the fact that people back home could confuse Turkey’s accession with the new treaty. Since, moreover, Parliament’s President is a type of specialist in referendums, my question is as follows: what, in actual fact, was talked about? What advice did Parliament’s President give the member of his own party in Denmark?"@en1
