EU enlargement commissioner Olli Rehn has urged Turkey to open its ports and airspace to Greek Cypriot ships and planes, if it wants to proceed smoothly with membership talks.
Ankara agreed to extend a customs union agreement to the EU's new member states, including the divided island of Cyprus, before officially launching membership talks last October.
Following the first EU "troika" meeting on Turkey this week, commissioner Rehn said "We have kept our word and opened up accession negotiations. Now we expect Turkey to keep its word by implementing the protocol," according to agency reports. |
