MEPs concerned about democracy and fundamental rights in Turkey

Turkey must put its reform process at the centre of domestic policy choices and commit "unequivocally" to democratic rules and principles, which are at the heart of the EU, say MEPs in a resolution on the progress of reform in Turkey in 2014. They urge Turkey to respect media freedom, free expression and judicial independence and welcome the recent parliamentary elections.
