ANKARA - "It is obvious that the (EP) report (on Turkey) focused on
issues which has nothing to do with common sense and objectivity. We
hope that those points will be addressed before the vote in the
General Assembly at the end of this month," Turkish MFA spokesman
Namik Tan said regarding the Turkey Report which was adopted by the
Foreign Affairs Committee of the European Parliament (EP), yesterday.
Upon a question, Tan said that the report, which was prepared by
Christian Democrat MEP Camiel Eurlings, would be voted at the General
Assembly on September 28th, 2006.
Tan noted, "several matters in the report which are far from to be
real and written with political impulses do not reflect EP's esteem
and seriousness." He mentioned as example issues like the so-called
Armenian genocide.
Tan said, "we expect the EP would encourage Turkey-EU relations. We
hope MEPs will demonstrate common sense to fix this situation during
general assembly meeting."
