Sarkozy: If I am elected as President, Turkey will not enter EU during my office

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ French presidential candidates Nicola Sarkozy and Segolen Royal have opposite views on EU’s further enlargement and Turkey’s membership to the Union. “Further enlargement of the European Union is impossible without preliminary reforms in its institutions. An endless enlargement means death of political Europe. If I am elected as president of France Turkey will not enter EU during my office. Turkey is located on Asia Minor and it says everything,” Sarkozy stated during live debates on May 2 with Segolen Royal.

Today Royal occupied a more compromise stance. On her opinion it is necessary to sustain a pause towards Turkey, but this country should not be rejected for EU membership completely.

“If Turkey fulfills all necessary commitments it may become a member-state of the European Union in future,” socialist Royal said, adding that she agrees with the idea that any new offer on EU’s further enlargement must be put for referendum in France, RIA “Novosti” reports.
