Article Abstract:

Turkey has been attempting to join the European Union for most of the 1990s, but EU members are concerned about Turkey's poor human rights record and its deteriorating economy. The European Commission recommended in Nov 1999 that Turkey be placed on the candidates' list, but full membership remains years away.
