After Brexit, Turkey may have zero chances of joining EU
UK’s leaving the European Union is the biggest crisis the union has ever experienced, President of the Strategic Outlook Turkish International Research Center Yusuf Cinar told Trend June 24.“The withdrawal of such a major country as the UK from the EU will negatively affect the union’s strength,” said the expert. “This will reduce the US influence in Europe.” The biggest risk for Ankara is the situation when the possibility of Turkey’s accession to the EU will be considered as the reason for Brexit, according to the expert. “This can strengthen the negative attitude of France, Germany and the Netherlands towards Turkey’s accession to the EU and then the EU will make every effort to prevent the country’s accession.” he added. The expert believes that after the Brexit, Europe can abandon its enlargement policy and as a result, Turkey will be left with a zero chance to join the EU.
