EU-Turkey Position Paper 2014
UNITEE is happy to announce the release of its EU-Turkey position paper 2014: “The Impact of the Democratic Crisis in Turkey on Business & Trade”.
Just before next week’s local elections in Turkey, UNITEE condemns the erosion of the rule of law in the country and the government’s increasingly authoritarian leadership style. The position paper comes as a response to our members’ concerns about possible implications for business and trade as a consequence of the political situation.
