France: LR 64 deputies and UDI, led by the Mayor, against any negotiations that could lead to Turkey’s EU membership

March 17, 2016 By administrator

arton123347-480x417Paris, March 17, 2016 (AFP) – LR 64 deputies and UDI, led by Bruno Le Maire (LR), co-signed a motion for a resolution to “oppose any negotiations that could lead to Turkey’s accession to the Union European, “according to a statement Thursday countdown, the day of a crucial European Council.

Noting that “the EU is about to seal a historic agreement with Turkey in making possible new membership in exchange for managing the influx of Syrian refugees,” Mr Le Maire argued that “discussion conditions the agreement directly between Germany and Turkey, have the other Member States with a fait accompli “, including France, a situation” unacceptable and contrary to the very principle of European integration “and the Franco-German base.

The signatories of the text, whose deputies LR Bernard Accoyer, Patrick Devedjian, Christian Estrosi, Marc Le Fur, Lionel Tardy, Thierry Solère or Marie-Jo Zimmerman and IDU Philippe Vigier, François Sauvadet or Maurice Leroy, stressed that the agreement is ” disputed by many leaders of the European Union “but also by the High Commissioner for Human rights of the UN,” which fears collective and arbitrary evictions. “

If Turkey “remains a vital partner as of France that of other member states of the European Union” to the risks of conflicts in the Middle East and the fight against Daech, these elected officials believe that “the cultural, historical, economic and military that unite us should allow us to offer Turkey a specific relationship with the European Union. “

“But the crisis of migrants can not be the pretext for a possible accession of Turkey to the European Union,” according to the presentation of their resolution.

“Convinced of the need for France to take its place within the European Union and refusing it to be reduced to a mere spectator role”, the LR and UDI MEPs want the French government opposes any negotiation could lead to the accession of Turkey but also the EU-Turkey agreement, and that the EU allows “strengthening of genuine partnership” with Ankara.

EU leaders will meet in Brussels on Thursday to finalize a crucial agreement with Turkey, which arouses the hostility of several member states, to stop the flow of migrants to Europe.

NICOSIA – Reuters

n_96471_1Greek Cyprus on March 15 ruled out consenting to an expedition of Turkey’s long-stalled talks to enter the European Union, unless Ankara fulfilled its obligations to recognize the island.

Turkey wants its citizens to have visa-free access to Europe by June and to open new “chapters” of its long-stalled talks on it joining the EU in returning for assistance in stemming the human tide of refugees through Europe in one of the worst humanitarian crises since the World War II.

“I conveyed to (EU Council) President Tusk our position that the Republic of Cyprus does not intent to consent to the opening of any chapters if Turkey does not fulfill its obligations as described in the negotiating framework,” Greek Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades told reporters after a meeting with EU Council President Donald Tusk in Nicosia.

Armenia may become one of Eurasian Economic Union co-founders

PanARMENIAN.Net – Eurasian Economic Commission Trade Minister Andrei Slepnev thinks that Armenia will be one of the co-founders of the Eurasian Economic 169847Union (EEU).

“We all should work hard to co-found the EEU, as it’s a very ambitious task,” Slepnev said, adding that Armenia’s decision to join the Customs Union arouses some technical issues that should be settled.

“The most important factor is the political will and the decision on further integration,” he said. “To join the Customs Union, Armenia should adapt the national legislation. However, we have enough experience to resolve the problems that can emerge.”

According to Slepnev, the report of Armenia’s joining the Customs Union could be prepared in the framework of the Supreme Economic Council on Sept 25.

During a Sept 3 meeting with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, President Sargsyan said Armenia is ready to join Customs Union, with further plans to be involved in formation of Eurasian Economic Union, thus arousing indignation of European officials.

However, later the European Commission said that the Association Agreement (including a Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area) with Armenia can be compatible with economic cooperation with the members of the Commonwealth of Independent States.

When in St. Petersburg to attend the G20 summit, European Council President Herman Van Rompuy said that Armenia, Moldova, and, if possible, Ukraine will hopefully sign the Association Agreement at the Vilnius Summit in November 2013.

“This is a political agreement. The Agreement would allow Armenia to go through comprehensive change both politically and economically. Therefore, after getting the news about Armenia’s plans of joining the Custom’s Union the EU expects to hear from Armenia what her further plans are. We have not received official explanations from Armenia, yet we don’t think this is a zero sum game and the same refers to Ukraine. Some benchmarks will be necessary to meet. There are some outstanding issues but we hope to see results in Vilnius. We are still engaged with these countries and still expect to sign the Association Agreements,” he said.

Meanwhile, a spokesman for Stefan Fule, the European Commissioner for Enlargement and European Neighborhood Policy, said that the European Parliament is not going to initialize either the Associated Agreement or the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area with Armenia, as it’s not compatible with membership in the Customs Union.
