/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The next survey of public opinion in Europe showed
that 60 % of Europeans are against Turkey’s EU membership. With only a
short period of time left before the EU makes some critical decisions
regarding the Turkish accession process, a poll in 5 different EU
countries shows an ever-lower level of public support for Turkey’s
potential membership.

According to the poll, which was carried out by France Inter, an
average of 26% of EU members now support a Turkish membership. The
poll of 1,000 people found that 60% of the respondents said that they
did not want Turkey to join the EU, while 14% said that they had no
opinion, Hurriyet reported.
