lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the report is rather given to understatement. I quote, ‘significant efforts are needed on fundamental rights’. The author, Orhan Pamuk, escaped prosecution for a heretical view of Turkish history only because of his international fame. The law is still in place. Could the EU possibly tolerate the suppression of heretical academic opinion in a Member State? Later, the report says that there is no progress towards normalisation of relations with Cyprus. In plain language, this means that Turkey still occupies, with force of arms, the northern part of that country, expropriating the property of Greek Cypriots and desecrating and plundering their places of worship and burial. Until Turkey withdraws its troops unconditionally, returns property and repairs damage, there should be no relations with Turkey at all, let alone negotiation for its EU membership."@en1
