COUNCIL OF EUROPE TO TAKE UP ISSUE OF TURKEY
The Council of Europe's permanent representatives committee
started yesterday its three-day session in which the
situation in Turkey would be discussed. The permanent
representatives committee will prepare a response to the
Council's Parliamentary Assembly resolution on Turkey, which
called on the Council to freeze Turkey's membership if
Turkey did not end its incursion into northern Iraq and
bring its democracy and human rights record up to standard.
The decision to freeze a state's membership can only be done
by the Council of Europe ministers. /All papers/
