Let's be very honest here friend, the EU is in NO way shape or form exploiting Turkey economically. Let's count the amount of automobile producers in Turkey (not to mention the auto parts suppliers): Renault, Fiat, Ford and Hyudai (not mentioning Turkish bus manufacturers). Most of those are exported to the EU. Same goes for Turkish white goods brands Arçelik etc. EU is the biggest export market. Also furniture etc. Also all European Turks who own at least one crappy appartment (by crappy I mean even the poorest diaspora have something) in Turkey (remittances). So no, Turkey isn't exploited. I do agree that they are playing Turkey with membership prospects and cutting it off again etc. But there comes a day that the geopolitical reality DICTATES that Turkey is granted entry into the EU. China already owns Central Asia completely. That little 'sea' of Hazar is what now separates the EU and China's sphere of influence. The EU can't afford to drive Turkey into the arms of the East. They'll just have to accept a couple million more Turks into Europe, and in return they gain a 80 million strong country with a large internal market, which is also a NATO member. That's how I see it. The EU needs to expand eastwards. Aren't many countries left in the East. Belarus and Ukraine are the northern tier. Turkey the southern tier.
Very well Argumentation ! Politically and strategically they Need us.
But that are the Facts :
RESTRICTIONS , DISADVANTAGES; cause if EU signs free trade Agreement with countries or joins TTIP, this countries can Export to Turkey with Zero custom, but not vice versa
AB ile GB imzaladığımızda, AB’nin başka ülkelerle imzaladığı anlaşmaların Türkiye’ye geçerli olmayacağına dair bir madde konulmamış. AB başka ülkelerle serbest ticaret anlaşması imzalayınca, bu ülkeler Türkiye’ye sıfır gümrükle ihracat yapabiliyorlar. Biz de o ülkelerle serbest ticaret anlaşması imzalamazsak büyük sıkıntı yaratıyor. AB’nin ABD ile anlaşma imzalaması bizim için tehlike yaratıyor. AB’den, ABD ile yürüttükleri görüşmelerde anlaşmaya “Gümrük Birliği ülkeleriyle otomatik uygulanır” şeklinde bir madde konulmasını istiyoruz. AB ile GB çerçevesinde yaptığımız ticaret 150 milyar euro civarında. Yüzde 45’i ihracat, yüzde 55’i ithalat. Bu denge önemli
