'Fair to Stop Negotiations': Sebastian Kurz Urges to Review Turkey's EU Bid

Turkey is trying to exert a strong influence on the Turkish communities in Austria
Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said that Turkey cannot become a member of the European Union due to the political course pursued by Ankara in recent years.

"In this country we see serious violation of human rights, fundamental rights and freedoms. I will not accept that the EU is watching and pretending that nothing is happening. From my point of view, Turkey, especially in the light of the policies of recent years, does not have place in the EU. It would be fair to stop negotiations on its accession," Kurz said in an interview with the German newspaper Bild am Sonntag.

Also, according to Kurz, Turkey is trying to exert a strong influence on the Turkish communities in Austria, Germany and other countries to prevent the integration of people of Turkish origin.
