It was European Union (EU) Enlargement Commissioner Olli Rehn who likened Turkey’s European Union adventure to a train journey and said, “If Turkey doesn’t fulfill its obligations by the end of 2006, a train wreck could happen.” It cannot be said that we took a liking to the train wreck comparison; but it’s obvious that it has really caught on. Now every single development with regards to the EU is being explained through a train-wreck metaphor."
