"TURKEY: FOLLINI, POPE SUPPORTS EU MEMBERSHIP TALKS
(AGI) - Vatican City, Jan. 10 - Marco Follini interpreted the Pope's comments on the European Union as a go-ahead for the negotiations for the admission of Turkey. When the Pope said that the new EU 'remains willing to welcome other states, who are willing to accept the EU admission requirements', said the deputy premier, 'he was referring to Turkey'. 'And it is important - added Follini in an interview with Telepace - that the Pope interprets Europe as a sign of openness'."
