". Although the Commission and the Council consider that Turkey has formally met the final conditions for accession talks to open on 3 October 2005, the truth is that there are key questions that were not taken into account, as Parliament’s resolution mentions. One of the most important issues centres on the protocol extending the Ankara agreement to the ten new Member States. Turkey signed the protocol but at the same time issued a statement saying that the signature, ratification and implementation of the protocol does not represent recognition of the Republic of Cyprus, referred to in the protocol, in any way, shape or form. We object to this unacceptable position. We also object to Turkey’s continued ban on vessels flying the Cypriot flag and vessels from ports in the Republic of Cyprus from entering Turkish ports, and to the ban on Cypriot aircraft from flying over Turkish airspace and landing in Turkish airports. We abstained from the vote on the resolution, due to our objections to some of the points therein. For example, it advocates constitutional reform as a condition for the accession of other new Member States; we believe that this is not an obstacle to enlargement."@en1
