By Joanna Sopinska | Monday 12 July 2010
The EU and Turkey will hold strategic talks, on 13 July in Istanbul, with the aim of seeking better coordination of their approaches towards the Western Balkans, Iran and the Middle East, including in particular Israel following the country's recent raid on Gaza-bound boats that left nine Turkish citizens dead. EU and Turkish senior officials will also address the political dimension of the ongoing accession negotiations in order to speed up the process."
