"Babacan: Turkey, EU differ on interpretation of Ankara protocol
Babacan made the remarks during a joint press conference with European Commissioner for Enlargement Olli Rehn following their talks in Brussels.
Asked about a possible crisis in Turkish-EU relations this year due to the Cyprus problem, Babacan said that the issue was recently discussed with incoming EU Term President Finland's Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen, during his Ankara visit.
'We and the European Commission have different interpretations of Turkey's commitments arising from the Ankara protocol,' Babacan said. 'Our talks continue with EU members and the commission on the issue. Turkey has met all its commitments so far to reach a comprehensive solution on Cyprus. But if one party does not really want a solution then we cannot go forward. And added to that, it is us who want to reach a solution.'"
