Poland gives Erdogan support on Turkey’s EU bid
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan finds a friendly European voice during a visit to Warsaw.
“Poland supports Turkey’s aspiration to join the European Union,” Polish President Andrzej Duda says, appearing with Erdogan before journalists.
Accession talks between Brussels and Ankara have essentially stopped. Erdogan says if the EU thinks “the accession of Turkey is not possible, then it should finally tell us so.”
