EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT POSTPONES VOTE ON PROTOCOL TO ANKARA AGREEMENT
European Parliament postponed voting on approval of the protocol extending Turkey's association agreement with the EU to the ten new member states.
MEPs feared that the Turkish declaration that the protocol does not mean any form of recognition of Cyprus would form part of the ratification process in the Turkish parliament and thus gain legal force. Nevertheless, in a political resolution voted afterwards, Parliament noted that accession negotiations with Turkey can start on 3 October as foreseen.
Parliament also said it considered Turkish recognition of "the Armenian genocide ... to be a prerequisite for accession".
