Turkey And The Eu (No. 2) (EDM2855)

Turkey And The Eu (No. 2)

EDM number 2855 in 2005-06, proposed by Richard Younger-Ross on 25/10/2006.

That this House recognises the changes made in Turkey to modernise its economy and progress made to improve human rights in the country, but notes that there are still many issues to be resolved before Turkey can join the EU; therefore urges the United Kingdom Government to press the EU to work positively with Turkey to resolve these issues; and commends the work of the Finnish Prime Minister as President of the EU in working to find a solution to opening Turkish ports to Greek Cypriot shipping as well as seeking a trade agreement with northern Cyprus.

This motion has been signed by a total of 20 MPs.
