Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
Seems like it should pretty much be up to the existing members.
Is there anything in the EU existing rules/constitution that says any nation with land in Europe as to be let it?

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
since greece can be in nato, more than likely someone will figure out a way to get them in if they want it.

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
them is in reference to turkey fyi...
i know, but seeing as greece is already in the EU...........
my point is that if someone or some group want turkey in for whatever reason then they will probably be a part of the EU. until then i doubt it.
in reference to if they should be allowed, really i dont care, but it could possibly make some bad blood worse.

Turkey is not part of Europe as Australia is not part of Asia.

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
thus my point about greece being in NATO(North Atlantic Treaty Organization)
Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
Sure, why not.
If Bosnia, Croatia & co can join, why not Turkey?

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
Turkia is also member of the NATO
But if they should become a Member of the EU
if they meet all Requirements and the EU changes its Budget spending from supporting agricaltural production to supporting, education, sience, industry and services.
then Yes why not.
If in 20 years the EU still spends 60 % of its money to support farmers
then No
Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
There are dozens.

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
How is Turkey comparable to Croatia?

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
If Turkey can meet more or the less the same requirements as Poland, Latvia, Hungary, Romania, etc. did, why not let them join?
Tiro
Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
again talking about turkey
but the point is why should they be allowed to join despit not being part of europe and it would allow them and terrorists into britain.

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
I am unaware of any terrorist attacks committed by Turks in Britain.
Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
7/7 Bombers = Pakistani = Muslims = Turks
Or so goes the stupid logic.

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
No because Turkey is in Asia minor not Europe plus I don't like the extension of the E.U to more states.
EU should be stoped at 10/15 states and not 27 states like now.

Re: should turkey be allowed into the EU
Istanbul, Turkish largest city, is geographically in Europe. Turkey has been an important part of European politics for the last 800 years or so. They are effectively European as much as they are Asian/Middle-Eastern.
