lpv:translated text	"As we have been stressing, many questions are raised by the negotiations on Turkey’s accession to the EU. This is a process promoted by the major powers in the EU, and it is not lacking in contradictions, as its objectives include the integration of this large country into the EU single market, control of its economy and the use of its geostrategic location in relation to the Middle East, the Caucasus and Central Asia, particularly for access to and control of the energy sources and markets of these regions. Moreover, the resolution is instructive on this point, urging Turkey to ‘support and actively contribute to the implementation of EU policies and measures in the region’, particularly in the area of energy, highlighting its ‘constructive engagement’ in NATO operations in Afghanistan and the Balkans, along with the renewal of ‘close ties with Israel’. The resolution ignores the repression of workers, trade unionists and leftist forces in Turkey, and of the Turkish people. As for Cyprus, the majority of Parliament maintains the usual ambiguity, although it is not clear why, given that Turkey has not taken any step towards recognising Cyprus, an EU Member State, but is continuing its military occupation of the north of that island, installing Turkish citizens to change its demographic balance, and in breach of UN resolutions."@en1
