As far as UK goes, it is not just up to us to have a good relationship. If they don't want to have a good relationship with RoC there is nothing we can do about it. We can only respond. They should know that there is a cost to pay.[/quote]
what garbitsch write is also true.
We know we cant enter EU.(Should be blind)
And we try it, for the way of EU also benefit us.
Even If we dont enter EU, The way of entering EU help us, for our economic improvement.
That is the reason why we try to enter EU.
We dont see membership at the end of way.
But way help us alone also.
Maybe price for entering EU will exceed price of not entering EU.
So If I was you, I wont rely on EU much for the blackmailing Turkey.
I am not sure after 5 year(After some degree of economic improvement) still Turkish People want to enter EU.
Support of EU is decreasing with the improvement of economy.
