While saying it could accept temporary measures to restrict the movements of Turks to the EU, Ankara has voiced opposition to any attempts to make such restrictions permanent, arguing that doing so would constitute a breach of Brussels' promise to treat Turkey's entry bid in the same way as those of other candidate countries.
Iako je saopštila da bi mogla da prihvati privremene mere za ograničavanje kretanja Turaka u EU, Ankara se usprotivila bilo kakvim pokušajima da se ta ograničenja učine trajnim, ukazujući da bi se tako prekršilo obećanje Brisela da će kandidaturu Turske tretirati na isti način kao kandidature drugih zemalja.
