"I voted for the resolution on the progress being made by Turkey because the country is the European Union’s seventh biggest trading partner, while the EU is Turkey’s biggest trading partner. Turkey’s economy has increased threefold over the past decade, has grown by around 10% in the last year, and is considered one of the fastest growing economies and one of the seven largest emerging economies in the world. I should emphasise the economic and growth potential of Turkey and its significant role in supporting regional stability and energy security. Turkey is a major EU energy corridor for Caucasian and Caspian oil and gas resources, while the Nabucco gas pipeline remains one of the EU’s highest energy security priorities. At the same time, Turkey offers significant potential for renewable energy from its solar, wind and geothermal sources. We welcome the progress made by Turkey in the area of renewable energy sources and support future efforts aimed at increasing the use of renewable energy sources in every sector. We should emphasise Turkey’s role in developing and implementing a future EU strategy for the Black Sea, which was called for by Parliament in its resolution of 20 January 2011."@en1
