Turkey to freeze EU ties if Cyprus gets EU presidency Let them freeze all ties then, sorry -- but I have lost patience. The rotating EU Presidency (now Poland) has been fixed until 2020! 2020! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_the_Council_of_the_European_Union#List_of_rotations This is Turkey's loss as far as I'm concerned -- and I guess Turkey itself is just looking for an excuse to break all ties with EU. Shame on them! Please vote in poll what you think EU should do!
