LONDON – A new magazine that aims to better acquaint Europe with Turkey was introduced Monday at the House of Commons in London. The magazine is run by a group of British citizens who support Turkey\u2019s accession into the European Union.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking at the introductory reception, the editor in chief of “Turkey in Europe,”<\/em> Osman Streater, said more and more people in Europe were finally understanding Turkey\u2019s significance. <\/strong>Another speaker, Edward Davey<\/strong>, shadow foreign secretary and a Liberal Democrat Parliament member, said he hoped the magazine would reach its goal of helping Turkey gain full membership in the EU.<\/p>\n

According to Davey, the launch of the magazine was a key step in Turkey\u2019s membership campaign. He added that Turkey was important for Europe in terms of economic, political and strategic reasons, and that its membership would send a clear message with historical significance that the EU is open to all religions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The magazine\u2019s first issue contains articles in support of Turkey\u2019s EU membership by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Shadow Secretary of State for Defense Liam Fox of the Conservative Party and Minister for Europe at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Caroline Flint.<\/p>\n
