"Turkey was accepted as an applicant country at the European Council in Helsinki in December 1999. Human rights in Turkey plus the Cyprus issue are therefore dealt with within the framework of the accession partnership with Turkey, about which the Council reached political agreement at its meeting on 4 December 2000. As we all know, Turkey is also a member of NATO.
The presidency report on the Common Security and Defence Policy, which was approved by the European Council in Nice, confirmed that the EU project is of an open nature. It contains arrangements for the EU’s military crisis management which enable consultation with, and participation of, European NATO members which are not members of the EU and other countries which are candidates for accession to the EU. The principle of the EU’s independence in decision-making must, of course, be taken into account in this openness.
In addition, in the conclusions from the European Council in Nice the EU reiterates the importance attached to being able to call on NATO’s funds and resources when necessary, in line with the Washington Summit Communiqué. In such situations it is vital to ensure approval from all NATO members of guaranteed access to NATO’s planning capacity and assumed access to previously identified NATO resources."@en1
