EDITORIAL
Dear Friends & Colleagues:
Greetings to you all!
Allow me to share with you today my second article on the EU & Turkey
entitled Turkey: Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow that you might perhaps find
informative. It is being posted on my website, as well as on other
hyperlinked sites relating to Turkey, Armenia and the Caucasus.
This topic is becoming quite a hot one - certainly until 17 December 2004
when the EU Council of Ministers decides whether to endorse the recent
Report of the Commission.
As ever,
Dr. Harry Hagopian, LL.D
TURKEY: Yest erday, Today & Tomorrow
Some commentators have recently opined that Turkey's adhesion to the EU
would constitute a message of hope, peace, prosperity and democracy. I
welcome hope, peace, prosperity and democracy, and I hail those lofty ideals
anywhere in our broken and polarised world. Nor, for that matter, am I
impermeable toward Turkish membership of our European Union.
However, I simply cannot accept such membership that is spun at the expense
of another people or their history.
