/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey is once again not invited to the European
Council where the heads of EU states are coming together on June 21-22
in Brussels, and this will be the third EU summit Turkey is being
excluded from since 2006. The 27 members of the EU club will discuss
the European Constitution in the Council without the attendance of EU
candidate countries. Last month, Sarkozy said that the discussions
about Turkey will be brought up at the December summit of the EU
following his meeting with his Italian counterpart, Turkish Daily
News reports. The newspaper reminds that Turkey was not invited to
the event held for the 50th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome on March
25 in Berlin. The heads of EU member states come together every year,
during the handover of the presidency, in June and December.
