Hi CobaltBlue; Re: "Between you, me, and the lamp post, my guess is that the EU doesn't want Turkey because if they let Turkey in they'd have no reason to exclude Israel."

If they let Israel in, they'd have to rename it the "Eurasian Union", and that would involve the expense of reprinting all those documents.
