lpv:translated text	"Mr President, it is perfectly clear that the level of application of human rights in Turkey alone precludes any ambitions on its part to become a member of the European Union. Turkey cannot become a member of the European Union, merely by reason of the fact that it is threatening to annex the occupied part of Cyprus and neither Cyprus nor the European Union are to blame for that. Of course, human rights abuses extend to Cyprus and to the Greek Cypriots and the Turkish Cypriots and I wish that you had heard the anguished cries of the Turkish Cypriots in fear of being swamped by the presence of Turkish troops. Of course, I congratulate the rapporteur on a difficult job but, despite the fact that the report is a balanced compromise, Turkey is stubbornly refusing to recognise our goodwill. Therefore, if Turkey wants to progress on the road towards accession and for chapters to be opened, it must comply with the decisions of the European Council and the European Court of Human Rights. It must respect the European . How is Turkey demonstrating its good will? How is it reacting to the positive agenda and the positive messages we are sending it? It is responding with threats to the Republic of Cyprus, it is leading the negotiations into an impasse and, instead of complying with UN resolutions, it is calling on the legal residents of Famagusta to return as citizens to the pseudo-State. Why should it therefore enjoy favourable treatment?"@en1
