lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I abstained from the vote on this report today. It is good that there is progress in the dialogue with Turkey. We need to have close relations with Turkey, but we also need to realise that Turkey lacks European values. There is suppression of minorities, including religious minorities, imprisonment of trade unionists and there are huge problems with regard to the freedom of expression. The country’s relations with Cyprus speak for themselves. I think that it would be more honest for the EU to say to Turkey that we would like to have very close cooperation with the country, but that membership of the EU is out of the question. It is like being engaged to a woman for a great many years, but never offering her marriage. It would be better to be frank and honest straight away."@en1
