Turkey And The Eu

EDM number 2709 in 2005-06, proposed by Rob Marris on 11/10/2006.

That this House recognises that two decades of discussions and negotiations between the European Union and Turkey has produced far too little improvement in Turkey's unacceptable human rights record; and urges the UK Government now to seek to persuade the EU to abandon completely all accession talks with Turkey, on the basis that Turkey will not in the foreseeable future be fit to be a member of the EU.

This motion has been signed by a total of 18 MPs.
