Egemen Bağış, Turkey's chief EU negotiator, sought yesterday (29 September) to unblock Ankara's accession bid by calling on European Union countries to call referenda on the country's EU membership. Turkey may also chose to consult its citizens, he said.

Erdoğan has expressed Turkey’s disappointment over the slow pace of membership negotiations with the European Union and asked the EU to offer reasonable excuses for this situation as Turkey is already doing its part to adjust to the EU acquis.

“I want to particularly underline a fact here. That is the fact that our application to the EU dates back to 50 years ago. There is not a second country that has been kept waiting at the door of the EU.

Has Turkey been told that there is not a second Country in the EU family that is occupying another Country's territory and by doing so it denies its citizens their human rights?
