"Mr President, we have founded a lot of our efforts and based many of our policies on the hope that by being nice to Turkey this country will change its Kemalic fascism into democratic-like behaviour that is just about acceptable. We were absolutely wrong and have rapidly become desperately disappointed and frustrated. The democratic reform process in Turkey has been moving with the pace of a three-legged turtle.
Commissioner, we and the vast majority of the European citizens we represent have run out of patience. We have had enough. The governing regime in Turkey has proven itself totally incapable and unwilling to get its country into the state of a 21st-century civilisation. Commissioner, the carrot technique has failed gloriously and you have to admit it. The time has now come to use the stick."@en1
