PaperBoy Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 The new Turkish government established a Ministry for EU Affairs. Egemen Bagis, former State Minister and Chief Negotiator for EU talks, was appointed head of the newly-formed Ministry. There is also the National Agency attached to the Ministry that deals with coordinating the education of Turkish students abroad. Bagis believes that students are able to root out the prejudices, the biggest obstacle to Turkey’s EU membership. “It is important that about 40 thousand students who are annually sent to Europe make it clear why Turkey should join the EU,†he said.
