Turkeys Accession to Full Membership of the EU is a much discussed topic on the Turkish Digest Blog and today the emphasis
is placed firmly on the notion that a winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature the former President of Finland Martti
Ahtisaari is deeply involved in this process. According to the Turkish blog
Ahtisaari's background is just right for this onerous task. Mr Ahtisaari has been involved in inspecting weapons in the Irish Republic and also dealing with the Status of Kosovo. There is a questions and answers series the summary of which is that Mr Ahtisaari believes that Turkey should be treated like his country Finland when it applied for full membership of the European Union and he is taking the leadership in this issue of saying that Turks will not flood Europe if the world in Turkey is fine then they will not wish to leave Turkey to live full steam ahead in the EU Countries. Hard work for Mr Ahtisaari on achievement of the accession of Turkey into the E.U.
