Turkey's EU Minister Omer Celik...

ADANA, TURKEY - NOVEMBER 24: Turkey's EU Minister Omer Celik gives a speech during a press conference on European Parliament's plenary session in Adana, Turkey on November 24, 2016. Turkey slammed a European Parliament motion on Thursday which urged the EU to halt accession talks with Ankara. Turkey's Minister for EU Minister Omer Celik described the motion as "null and void". Speaking at a press conference in southern Adana province, Celik said the motion was not "something to be taken seriously". Adopted Thursday by 479 votes to 37, with 107 abstentions, the motion called on "the Commission and on the Member States to initiate a temporary freeze of the ongoing accession negotiations with Turkey". "We would respect the motion if it was constructive despite being critical [of Turkey]. However, this motion is politically inconsistent," Celik said. "They adopted it for political purposes. Those who want to give us a message should know that the parliament's message would not get through the Kapikule Border Gate [a crossing point between Turkey and the West]."
