"Mr President, the report seems to question, at least in part, the criteria for Turkey’s candidacy, as indeed have other colleagues. I agree. As there are profound question marks over Turkey’s candidacy, the logic is that pre-accession funding to Turkey, which will total EUR 4.8 billion for the period 2007-2013, should cease forthwith.
Turkey is already in the EU’s Customs Union. In consequence, EU Members, including the UK, are already getting all the benefits from trade with Turkey that we reasonably can. Turkey is also a member of NATO, which means that certain Members are in a military alliance with Turkey. The fact of the matter is that we do not need Turkey to be in a political union."@en1
