The Foreign Affairs Committee of the European Parliament will adopt the
package of amendments on the recurrent report on Turkey's accession to
the European Union by September 18. The voting date will be determined
only after the discussion of the amendments. The package of suggestions
is not publicized to avoid extra disputes.
It's worth mentioning that the recurrent report on Turkey includes no
reference to the Armenian Issue. During the first discussion of the
draft on September 13 a number of members of the Committee pointed to
the faultiness of the report. In particular, Belgian MP Philip Claeys
noted: "The recurrent report on the process of Turkey's accession to
the European Union must certainly refer to the Armenian Genocide."
Suggestions were presented also by the European Armenian Federation.
