EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Political group leaders in the European Parliament will on Thursday (14 March) discuss a contentious report which raises the idea of Turkish Cypriot representatives in the parliament, while also proposing that Turkish should get an official EU language status.
The confidential report - seen by EUobserver - was prepared by the parliament's "High-Level Contact Group for relations with the Turkish Cypriot community in the northern part of the island," a cross-political group of MEPs established by the EU assembly in September 2005.

Seems like a good thing, but what about the legal implications?
Turkish as a language in the EU im not too bothered about, after all, there are about 3 or 4 milion 'turks' in germany (correct me if im wrong City) so its a pretty significant 'ethnic group of europe'.
anyway, interesting to discuss nonetheless. |
