lpv:spoken text	"I supported the resolution, as I am very concerned over backsliding on democratic reforms in Turkey. The government should address media freedom as a matter of priority and provide an adequate legal framework to guarantee pluralism in line with international standards. These developments, however, call for more, not less, engagement with Turkey. Respect for fundamental freedoms is at the heart of the EU accession negotiation process. Opening new negotiating chapters on the rule of law and human rights could increase the pressure and help the country address the reforms needed."@en1
