    LONDON DOESN'T SUPPORT ATTEMPTS TO PREVENT TURKEY'S EU MEMBERSHIP

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The UK doesn't support Germany and France in their
    attempt to prevent Turkey from EU membership. "My opinion is the
    official position of Great Britain, which sees Turkey a member of the
    European Union," said Alan Waddams, European Commission representative
    in Azerbaijan.

    "I am hopeful Turkey will be accessed to the Union soon," he said
    adding that he doesn't think that protraction of talks can be caused
    by religious issues, Trend reports.

    Addressing a UMP conference, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and
    German Chancellor Angela Merkel have reaffirmed their opposition to
    full membership of Turkey in the European Union.

    France and Germany understand that Turkey's membership will press three
    informal EU leaders - France, Germany and UK. With its vast territory,
    population of many millions, tremendous economic and geopolitical
    significance will comprise the leading 'four' of Europe, experts say.
