On September 25, a regular sitting of the European Parliament discussed
the report of its External Relations Committee on Turkey that harshly
criticizes Turkish authorities. The report also labeled unsatisfactory
all reforms carried out in regards to freedom of speech, religious and
ethnic minority rights and improvement of relations with Cyprus. EP
representatives have also called on Turkey in the report to open its
border with Armenia and to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide.
