Turkey EU minister says 'not end of road' for membership bid

ANKARA, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 23th july, 2016) - Turkey's EU minister said Saturday that the failed coup does not spell the end of its membership bid and pledged to abide by the terms of the refugee deal with the bloc. "We don't believe this is the end of the road, it is time to start brand new momentum," said EU Affairs Minister Omer Celik.

"The refugee deal continues without any hitch despite the coup in Turkey," he told a briefing in Ankara, referring to a landmark agreement aimed at stemming the flow of migrants to Europe.
