lpv:translated text	"Mr President, we are talking about Turkey joining Europe. An example yesterday: it prevented the Pope from going to celebrate mass in Istanbul. Tell me, which other country in the world prohibits the Pontiff from visiting it? Even communist Castro received the Pope with the honours befitting a head of state. Turkey bans him. That is racism. This ban is racism. It is not just against the Ecumenical Patriarch; it is not that they have converted the biggest church in Christendom, Saint Sophia, for oriental dances and swimsuit fashion shows. It is an insult. What is happening is an insult to Europe. It does not recognise Cyprus and some people are talking about the Annan plan. If the Annan plan was so attractive to Turkey, let it apply it to the 20 million Kurds. If the occupying army leaves, the 1960 constitution will be restored, with a Greek Cypriot President and a Turkish Cypriot vice-president and there is an end to it. Automatically, northern Cyprus will enjoy the benefits that southern Cyprus enjoys. It is a straightforward matter; it just needs logic, not the intervention of the Americans which, unfortunately, also directs the steps of Europe here in this Chamber. ( )"@en1
