No more concessions, says Ankara
By Lénaïc Vaudin d'Imécourt | Wednesday 22 February 2012
Ankara feels that enough is enough, it has already done its part in attempting to push its EU membership negotiations forward and will not make any more concessions, Turkey's newly appointed Ambassador to the EU, Selim Yenel, told a conference, on 21 February, on Turkey's priorities and challenges in 2012.
While he conceded that his country’s relationship with the bloc was at a very low point, he said that his mission was to “prevent things from getting worse”. He said that Ankara had nothing left to offer to the EU and that his government was “fed up” with the current stalemate.
