Der t\u00fcrkische Premier schl\u00e4gt in Newsweek<\/a> einen forschen Ton gegen\u00fcber Europa an: Ihr braucht uns mehr als wir euch!<\/p>\n

Our European friends should realize that Turkey-EU relations are fast approaching a turning point. In the recent waves of enlargement, the EU smoothly welcomed relatively small countries and weak economies in order to boost their economic growth, consolidate their democracies, and provide them with shelter. Not letting them in would have meant leaving those countries at the mercy of political turmoil that might emerge in the region. No such consideration has ever been extended to Turkey. Unlike those states, Turkey is a regional player, an international actor with an expanding range of soft power and a resilient, sizable economy. And yet, the fact that it can withstand being rebuffed should not become reason for Turkey\u2019s exclusion. Sometimes I wonder if Turkey\u2019s power is an impediment to its accession to the Union. If so, one has to question Europe\u2019s strategic calculations.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been more than half a century since Turkey first knocked at Europe\u2019s door. In the past, Turkey\u2019s EU vocation was purely economic. The Turkey of today is different. We are no more a country that would wait at the EU\u2019s door like a docile supplicant.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
