Former European Commission President Romano Prodi has invited the European Union to reconsider Turkey's accession.
Leading Italian central left opposition Prodi told Il Gazzettino earlier today that Turkish membership to the EU should be re-considered and that he has the opinion that the country has not met the short and medium term requirements.
He is more concerned about the troubles in the Union than those of Italy, added Prodi and diagnosed the problem not as the Euro but as the enlargement process. "
