/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey signed an agreement on cooperation in
scientific investigations with the EU thus taking the first step on
the way towards the European integration. Yesterday the document
was signed in Luxembourg by 25 EU Foreign Ministers and Turkish
Minister of Foreign Affairs Abdullah Gul. The agreement is the
first out of 35 documents Turkey has to sign with the European Union
before the discussion of the terms of the state's membership in the
European community. The signing of the agreement was nearly blocked
by Cyprus which urged Ankara to fulfill obligations on the terms of
its recognition. It should be noted that presently Turkey recognizes
only the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus located in the northern
part of the island, reported Golos Rossii.
