"Mr President, I have heard of the carrot and stick approach, but I have never heard of the carrot and carrot approach. That seems to be the EU’s relationship with Turkey. It seems to give, give, give.
Can I remind this institution that the Cypriots held the Presidency in the latter part of 2012 and Turkey point blank refused to actually have anything to do with them, although they were a candidate country. Well if the candidate country does not want to have anything to do with its Presidency, surely the candidature should be ceased there and then.
The people of Cyprus are held hostage by the invaders and occupiers of northern Cyprus. The people of Morphou last November, together with myself, attempted to visit their town and were refused free access to their old town by the Turkish authorities. The people of Kyrenia wished to celebrate a religious service in their town over the coming Easter and have been refused by the Turkish authorities.
Baroness Ashton is being her usual, useless self and is unable to help. Is it not about time we got real on Turkey?"@en1
