That said, the EU has always been wary for Turkey to become part of the EU. So for them Turkey should not be in the EU. It is an important power at the gate of the Middle East, literally the bridge between Europe and the Middle East. So they can't flat out refuse Turkey's advances either.

Oh I understand why they'd want access.

I just never thought of it as European in terms of geography. And a lot of the arguments of "it's more like Europe than the Middle East" would probably be just as true (if not more) of Israel (proper).

True point Israel makes more sense than Turkey to be in the E U.

Would Turkey Be Justified in Kidnapping or Drone-Killing the Turkish Cleric in Pennsylvania?
