"Mr Lambsdorff, I entirely agree that Turkey remains a strategic partner: it is a member of NATO, it is a candidate country for the European Union, etcetera, etcetera. But the fact is that, over recent years, the human rights situation is deteriorating, and democracy is basically also deteriorating. Moreover – quite clearly from all the intelligence reports – they have been supporting terrorist groups in the Syrian conflict.
Do you think it is time now that we began to keep in reserve some of the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA) pre-accession monies – which amount to hundreds of millions of euros of taxpayers’ money to assist Turkey – as a conditionality way of trying to put increased pressure on them to improve their situation in terms of human rights and democracy and their support for terrorists?"@en1
