Full EU membership remains a strategic goal for Turkey, the head of the country's Parliamentary EU Harmonization Committee said on Wednesday, reports Anadolu.
According to him, Turkey's membership had been obstructed for "political reasons, causing disappointment in Turkey."
Turkey applied for the EU membership in 1987 and accession talks began in 2005. Negotiations stalled in 2007 due to opposition from the Greek Cypriot administration, Germany and France.
