Turkish Leader Demands Full EU Membership

"ISTANBUL, Turkey (AP) - Turkey's prime minister said Saturday the mostly Muslim nation will only accept full membership in the European Union, warning Austria's ambassador to drop talk about an associate partnership in the group.

The EU foreign ministers meet Sunday in Luxembourg to discuss Austria's insistence that Turkey be offered something less than full membership in the 25-nation EU, calling into question whether the bloc will open accession talks with the mostly Muslim nation on Monday, also in Luxembourg."

Well then Turkey should be ready to become fully democratic. Somehow I don't think Turkey's treatment and disfranchising of the Kurdish minority is acceptable in Europe. Or at least in my opinion it shouldn't be.
