Salvini calls for Turkey’s EU application to be definitively rejected

Deputy Italian Prime Minister and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini on Monday called for Turkey’s application to join the EU to be definitively rejected.

Salvini, who is also leader of the far-right Lega, made this declaration as he met with the heads of other European right-wing parties in Milan. “Turkey is not in Europe and it never will be,” Salvini told a press conference at the gathering entitled ‘Towards a Common Sense Europe, Peoples Rise Up’.

In Milan, Salvini said that  the accession process should be cancelled and definitively stopped.

Among the figures taking part in the event are Jörg Meuthen of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, Anders Vistisen of the Danish People’s Party and Olli Kotro of the Finns Party.
