"Mr President, we recognise the importance of trade relations between the EU and Turkey. The Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) maintained a responsible position, thereby helping, as far as possible, to bring balance to the initial text of the report we are debating.
We call on Turkey to implement fully and without delay all its obligations deriving from the Additional Protocol to the EU/Turkey Association Agreement in a non-discriminatory way and recall that failure to do so may further seriously affect the negotiating process.
I, too, should like to join Mr Rinaldi and Mrs Tzavela in highlighting the fact that Turkey is one of the leading countries which produces imitation goods seized in the EU – I repeat, one of the leading countries – and that it does not effectively apply the rules governing the protection of intellectual property.
The external action of the EU, including the common trade policy, is intended to safeguard democratic principles and respect for the principles of the UN founding charter and of international law, and to build partnerships with third countries which share these values.
This fundamental declaratory principle of the Treaty of Lisbon must be applied to the letter. We must always bear in mind that the European Union is not negotiating with Turkey; Turkey is negotiating its accession with the European Union. The burden of adaptation rests with Turkey itself.
