"Italy Foreign Minister: Turkey's EU Accession Process Irreversible
ROME -(Dow Jones)- Turkey's planned accession to the European Union is ' irreversible,' Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said Tuesday.
'We can't change the rules of the change. It's in Turkey's interest but also in the EU's interest that Turkey is one day a full-fledged member,' Frattini said at a conference in Rome, which was also attended by his Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu. 'Religious difference is not a valid argument' to object to Turkey's membership, he added."
