I'm well aware. But considering that Turkey, the modern successor state of the Ottoman Empire, is negotiating its way into the EU, while the UK has just finished making a dog's breakfast of negotiating its way out of it...
- StartupTree 7y agoTurkey is not currently negotiating its way into the EU, not using any credible definition of the word.

Human rights seems to be biggest sticking point, and is unlikely to be resolved any time soon.
