[quote]The European Union has delayed the reopening of accession talks with Turkey for at least four months but says the path stays open. Germany, Austria and the Netherlands hesitated, citing Turkey's crackdown on protestors.EU nations agreed in a compromise on Tuesday to reopen talks on Turkey's lengthy bid for membership of the bloc, but set a delay of at least four months as a rebuke for Ankara's tough crackdown on protestors in recent weeks.
The deal was concluded in Luxembourg after consultations between German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle and his Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu, who said it was important that "Chapter 22 has been opened. This matter is over."
Davutoglu was referring to one of 35 policies that candidate states must satisfy before gaining entry to the EU. Talks on Chapter 22, which deals with regional policy, had been due to reopen on Wednesday. [/quote]

There is probably exactly one person in all of facepunch who will be surprised by this
"What do you mean we can't kill protesters?"
Have they admitted to the Armenian Genocide yet?
I'm p sure most of Turks and anyone familiar with the situation already knows Turkey wont be getting in EU eitherway.
Most of them have dealt with it already and just don't care anymore.

Course they haven't and probably never will.
First things first they might find a proper name for their country that isn't a bird that never even lived there.

Last I recall they won't be accepted in until they do.
