"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in economic terms, it is a good thing for Europe to deepen its commercial relations with fast-growing nearby countries. However the European Union has, at least theoretically, always conducted a commercial policy with third countries that takes social and humanitarian aspects into account.
We therefore need these clauses to be firmly implemented for Turkey, a country which is becoming more Islamic again, where the condition of women is progressively worsening with more than 1 500 women killed in episodes of domestic violence in 2009, and where Christians live in fear of attacks by Islamic extremists. Just think of the brutal murder of Monsignor Padovese.
In the report, Parliament encourages Turkey to take a leading role in promoting open and fair trade. One thing is clear: we must be concerned by the leading political role that Turkey is seeking to carve out in the Arab world, and of the friendship that Turkey is cultivating with Iran and terrorist groups such as Hamas.
In any case, if there must be a commercial policy, then so be it. However, this must not turn into a Trojan horse to facilitate Turkey’s entrance into Europe."@en1
