"Madam President, I supported the report. The European Union and all its Member States and Turkey are already dependent on one another. Turkey has not reformed in the manner and according to the timetable agreed, and, unfortunately, negotiations have made sluggish progress. At the same time, Turkey is the only candidate country without visa waiver status. Access to the European Union should be made easier for researchers, students and members of civil society. Border control is Turkey’s stumbling block. The number of illegal immigrants entering the EU through the Greek-Turkish bottleneck is huge.
Turkey also has a role to play in achieving lasting peace, democratic progress, stability and prosperity, both in the Balkans and in the Middle East. Turkey needs to find a political solution to the Kurdish question. More effective political dialogue is required. There have to be greater opportunities for citizens of Kurdish origin to participate politically, culturally, socially and economically, and for them to feel that they are included. Children must also have the right to learn their own mother tongue in school."@en1
