The majority of the phrases of the report of the European Parliament on Turkey are in the positive direction, the EPP said in a statement.
"However," it notes, "we must stress that absent from the report is the proposal to impose the same sanctions that were imposed on Russia because of the invasion of Ukraine, and on Turkey because of its continued occupation of Cypriot-European territories and its systematic attempt to alter its demographic character through illegal colonisation.",
"There is also no reference to the commitments made by Turkey in September 2005 to the EU regarding the Republic of Cyprus, which it has not yet implemented," the EPP added.
