Default Re: Should Turkey join the EU?

i voted yes but they have to meet the same requirements as any other applicant. i believe they're moving in the right direction while other countries that are already part of the EU, like Poland, are going backward.

i don't think they should be rejected because they're -mostly- muslims, as long as there's a separation of church and state, and human rights are respected.

i don't think they should be rejected because they're not part of the european continent. i think that's a lame excuse. i don't see why we couldn't decide that, from now on, the EU should be about common principles instead of common continent.
