image_pdfimage_print

The outcome of Turkey’s referendum, expanding presidential powers, will be debated with EU enlargement commissioner Johannes Hahn on Wednesday at around 17.30.

MEPs are expected to comment on the future of EU-Turkey relations and accession talks, as the referendum outcome allows the powers of Turkey’s President to be expanded from 2019, which would compromise the separation of powers and the system of checks and balances.

You can watch the plenary debate via EP Live, and EbS+.
