Turkey's controversial EU bid, ......at the focus of EU Parliament's session next week in Strasbourg. ...
You omitted to mention also : "EU - Brazil and Mexico strategic partnerships", which seem more important. As well as EU - South Africa additional protocol, EU - Israel and EU - Armenia agreements etc., which seem closer to Europe's history and culture.
... at the same time as EU Citizens' initiatives (Referenda ?) and EU Elections' anniversary 1979-2009, .....
What a coincidence...
Can you guess American Citizens' views if anyone asks them to enlarge the U.S. to Mexico, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Colombia ?
(At least, Colombia is symbolically linked with Colombo's history)...
