on Wednesday in Strasbourg.
When visiting Beirut, Borrell stressed EP's support for a" sustainable
peace" in the region.
Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, Darfur, secret CIA prisons, EU-India
relations and nanosciences and nanotechnologies are some of the other
issues the EP will discuss during its full session in Strasbourg

On Turkey, the Socialist group in the EP - the parliament's second
biggest bloc - is concerned about the draft report which the EP's
foreign affairs committee has approved.
The report on Turkey demands that Ankara must recognise the" Armenian
genocide" as a precondition for EU entry.
Heated discussion is expected during the debate on Turkey in the EP
on Tuesday followed by a vote on the report Wednesday.
