"Turkey determined on its EU bid, despite French opposition
29/05/2007
Ankara is trying to persuade new French President Nicolas Sarkozy not to challenge Turkey's already troubled EU entry talks.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy sent an envoy to Ankara at the weekend to try to calm tensions over his opposition to Turkish membership in the EU, the newspaper Le Figaro reported on Tuesday (May 29th). The paper also said Sarkozy would not prevent the EU from opening three new policy chapters in Turkey's membership negotiations next month, because he has other priorities."
