Re: PS re: President Sarkozy puts his foot in it (4.00 / 3)

It it rather unclear what Cohen wants to say in this column, he starts out with the Lisbon Treaty and Ireland and then discusses EU membership of Turkey. Those issues are only peripheral related.

Enlargement is what started this whole mess, therefore what Europe really needs is...more enlargement! Brilliant.

Re: PS re: President Sarkozy puts his foot in it (none / 1)

Some in the US see the EU as a mechanism for anchoring Turkey in the Western as opposed to the Islamic camp. Not sure most Europeans feel the same way about it. Personally I don't think it's likely Turkey will join even with Lisbon, but there is no way it an happy without Lisbon.
