Turkey's membership perspective after Helsinki Summit

Abstract

Turkey’s candidacy has been approved in Helsinki Heads of State and Government Summit between the dates of 10-11 December 1999. After the Summit, it felt like as if Turkey was going to be a full member immediately as it was in the Customs Union case. Although the first six months is over, there hasn’t been any progress. If Turkey continues being quiet, she can’t take deservedly part in reorganized Europe in 21st century.Turkey's membership; european union; enlargement
