Turkey is not yet ready to become an EU member, said the President of the European Commission Jean - Claude Juncker in an interview with the German ARD television channel. 

"Turkey cannot become a European Union member in its current state," he stated. According to Juncker, if  , as some say , Turkey will implement death penalty again, it will bring to immediate termination of negotiations. At the same time, in order to  suspend negotiations all the EU members should agree, which is not the case at present. The EU expects Turkey to fulfill all the necessary conditions . At the same time , Juncker urged to continue a dialogue with Turkey .
