Speaking at the 15TH anniversary of the removal of the Berlin Wall, former PM of Germany Helmut Kohl said to the Bavarian TV that Turkey had no chance of entering E.U. Kohl said that he did not believe Turkey would be a member of E.U. in a predicable future and that E.U Leaders were deceiving Turkey with E.U. membership promises.

Kohl said: “Even the E.U. authorities believe that the membership of Turkey would last at least 10-15 years, they know that by that time they will not be in power. I am advocating a special partnership to Turkey since 1998, I think this is the most rational solution.”
