I just read Sarkozy's interview with the International Herald Tribune. He based his ideas on geographical context.
I want honest ideas, please. If, geographically speaking, Southern Cyprus is considered European, how come Turkey is considered Asian?
In cultural context, if Greece, which was part of the same empire that Turkey was, is considered European, how come Turkey is considered not?
In religious context, if Muslims, Jews, atheists and agnostics living in "Christian" Europe are considered European, how come Turkey's Muslims, Jews, Christians, atheists and agnostics are considered not European?
