This is pretty much a meaningless development at this point, given that the EU is on the verge of total collapse anyway.
After Trump, it’s just a matter of time. A question of quick or slow death.
The leaders of the European Parliament’s two largest groups have called for the EU to halt membership talks with Turkey because of its post-coup purges.
“Our message to Turkey is very clear: accession negotiations should be frozen immediately,” said Manfred Weber, the head of the largest faction in the European Parliament, the centre-right European People’s Party.
He was echoed by Gianni Pitella, the leader of the socialist group, the parliament’s second biggest, who said: “We want to freeze the accession talks.”
In the wake of Ankara’s post coup crackdown, the message is human rights and democracy are non-negotiable, if you want to be part of the EU.
Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said the EU will have to “live with the consequences” – if the decision is taken to stop the talks.
The bloc’s top diplomat, Federica Mogherini, urged caution.
“If the accession talks came to an end I believe we would both find ourselves in a lose lose scenario,” she said.
More than 125,000 people in Turkey have been suspended or dismissed over July’s failed military coup. Some 36,000 have been arrested and media outlets closed.
The relevance of this is that the EU is walking back their pro-haji positions in an attempt to save their failing system.
Although basically they’re angry at Turkey for siding with Russia.
It has nothing to do with “human rights” – the West has made it clear that they don’t care if Moslems violate these values and principles.
