EU enlargement commissioner to arrive in Ankara for talks

Stefan Füle, the European Union commissioner responsible for enlargement, is due to pay a two-day visit to Ankara next week to hold talks with senior Turkish officials on Turkey’s almost-stalled negotiation process.

Füle will meet President Abdullah Gül, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and EU Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu in Ankara and will hold a press conference on June 17. The visit comes after Ankara and Brussels postponed a key evaluation in meeting in April, at a time when the government’s bans on Twitter and YouTube were still in place.

Turkey opened a negotiation chapter last year after a three-year hiatus, but there are no signs for the opening of a new chapter either in the current Greek EU term presidency or in the upcoming Italian term presidency.
