Ankara- Turkey's new foreign minister has ruled out Turkey accepting anything but full membership of the European Union, Turkish newspapers reported on Friday.
"We will either become a full member of the EU or not become a member at all," newspapers quoted Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu as saying in Stockholm on Thursday, referring to mooted moves by Germany and France to offer Turkey some sort of deal that falls short of full membership of the European Union.
Davutoglu also urged EU members not to use Turkey's membership bid as a domestic political issue and said that Turkey treated its bid as a strategic priority.
The Turkish foreign minister was in Stockholm for talks with his Swedish counterpart Carl Bildt and EU Enlargement Commissioner Olli Rehn.(dpa)
