Erdogan: Turkey Essential for EU to Retain Power

ANKARA (Sputnik) – Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in a message on Europe Day that the European Union needed Turkey to be a strong global player.

Erdogan added that Turkey would continue seeking EU membership despite what he called the bloc’s double standards.

The EU-Turkish accession talks have been going off and on since 2005. They were revived in 2016 when the EU asked Turkey to limit the influx of migrants in return for cash and concessions but soon came to a standstill.
