"Mr President, I have risen to speak on the basis of Rule 162(2) and (3) of our Rules of Procedure. As Mr Watson has just pointed out, and to pick up on the remarks made by Mr Poettering, it is the European Union’s duty to take the historic decision on whether or not to open negotiations with Turkey. There are those who are opposed to Turkey’s accession, and I have great respect for these people. There are also those who are in favour of such an accession, and I have great respect for them too. Yet I know of no one whom I respect who lacks the courage to say what they think about Turkey. I would ask Mr Poettering to make a public statement on whether he is for or against the secret ballot which will take place in this House today. Is he personally for or against the secret ballot?"@en1
