"Madam President, I cannot imagine anyone who has been in negotiations where they have asked someone for help who was then surprised when the other party asked for something back. This appears to be what is happening with Turkey, and it seems to have taken many colleagues by surprise.
Ideally, I would also prefer to isolate issues from one another. However, we must also be realistic. Turkey plays a crucial role geopolitically in the region and we need its help to tackle systematic issues which are of enormous concern to everyone, from the immigration package to accession talks in general. This makes some overlap almost inevitable, but it is not necessarily something we should be afraid of.
Whilst we must be careful not to give Turkey a free pass, enhanced cooperation in critical areas, from the fight against terrorism to the migrant crisis, should be seen as an opportunity to breathe life into our relationship instead of being seen as a step backwards."@en1
