Minister for EU Affairs and Chief Negotiator Ömer Çelik Was Interviewed by the Anadolu Agency

Minister for EU Affairs and Chief Negotiator Ömer Çelik evaluated the matters on the agenda during an interview with an Anadolu Agency reporter.

Minister Çelik said that the EU issue should not be considered to be a demand by Türkiye that the EU is unwilling to fulfill and said “Just as European history cannot be written without Türkiye, the future of Europe cannot be without Türkiye.”

Minister Çelik, who referred to the funds to be transferred to Türkiye in the framework of the EU-Türkiye Statement of 18 March said: “Expressions such as “contracting” or “releasing” the funds are meaningless. There is a genuine crisis and people who are in immediate need of assistance as a result of this crisis.”

Regarding the updating of the customs union, Minister Çelik said “There is no hurry in this matter. We are ready if they are ready.”
