Turkish EU Membership Probability Very High, Turkish Expert Believes

PanARMENIAN.Net - The probability of Turkey's membership at the EU is very high, Turkish expert Gultekin Burcu told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter in Yerevan. In her words, firstly economic reforms are necessary. «However, these should be in line with human rights and freedom of expression reforms, reconsideration of some articles of the Criminal Code. I am an optimist however and I believe that Turkey is on a right way,» she noted.



At that she underscored that economy underlies everything. «If countries of the region understand that trading is more profitable than fighting, solution of conflicts may become a bit closer. I do not say that development of economic ties is a panacea for all problems, but these are necessary,» Gultekin Burcu stressed.
