...especially the Eastern Anatolian one, her culture of raped daughter murdering and of ethnic cleansing of non Turkish populations, and of grabing and robing the properties and the wealth of others etc, etc, etc.

Turkey isn't getting anywhere close to meeting its EU accession requirements. Gul and the Turkish leadership are just after the funding that goes with EU accession. The EU should call their bluff and stop giving EU taxpayer's money to these charlatans and crooks.

Much of which is spend to fund the illegal occupation of EU territory and for the maintenance of 40.000 troops on it as well as for the financing of the illegal TC "state". And for the procurement of armaments which are used to bully all her neighbors including two EU members.
They are also after the prestige which the status of a Muslim country, being a candidate EU member, projects to the Mid East and to the Arab World.

THE Turkish President, Abdullah Gul, describing his nation as: "......being part of European culture and art


He is obviously referring to the monuments and remnants of the Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Armenian, Assyrian, art and culture found everywhere in Asia Minor and which the Turks claim as their own "heritage" (once a pirate always a pirate).
Even the so-called "turkish baths" are nothing but the roman baths. Because, as far as history records, the Turanic-Mongol tribes that invaded Asia Minor on horse back (Seljuk and Ottomans), didn't carry any baths with them nor did they have any where they came from (the Steppes of Mongolia).
While the "turkish cuisine" is nothing other than the ages old cuisine of the populations which had been inhabiting Asia Minor centuries before the arrival of the Turan. Honestly, can anyone imagine a Mongol woman preparing and cooking "moussaka" or staffed zucchini with "avgolemono" cream in the Steppes of Mongolia?
Do I mean there is no such thing as Turkish culture and art? NO! I do not. Turkish culture and art do exist. But they are oriental, deeply influenced by the Persian and Arabic culture and art. And in any case, they are not ours. Not European, i.e., not of Greco-Roman origin.

Somebody should have informed Gül, that there has been a regime change in the UK and that David Miliband is no longer the UK foreign secretary. :idea:

I'm sure Gül's pleas went in one Dumbo ear of Miliband and went out the other Dumbo ear. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Why is Turkey so spooked by the prospect of the RoC taking over the EU rotating Presidency in 2012?

Gül presses for solution in Cyprus before June 2012

26 November 2011, Saturday / TODAY'S ZAMAN, İSTANBUL

President Abdullah Gül said he warned the UK that if a comprehensive solution is not found on the divided Mediterranean island of Cyprus by June 2012, Greek Cyprus will never bother again for a solution and the two-state structure on the island will continue.

Greek Cyprus is preparing to take over the EU's rotating presidency in July 2012. Speaking to reporters on Thursday when returning from an official visit to the UK, Gül said one of the topics he focused on during his three-day visit was the Cyprus issue and its settlement.

“One of the issues I dwelled on most [during my visit to UK] was the Cyprus issue. I spoke a lot about this issue because Great Britain is one of the guarantor powers of Cypriot sovereignty. I explained this issue to [British Foreign Secretary David] Miliband. I also talked about the issue of the Cyprus [EU] presidency term. … I said that if the UK sincerely wants to take a step regarding the Cyprus issue, it is just the time to do this. You will be able to take action until June 2012. If you will convince Greek Cyprus and say ‘enough,' it is just the time to do this. If you fail to take action now and if Greek Cyprus assumes the [rotating] EU presidency, why would it bother to seek settlement,” Gül said.

Turkey is a natural part of Europe because it has land in Europe whereas the half country is not.

The only way to solve this problem is for Turkey to bugger off from Cyprus.
