Ukraine, because of the war with the Russian Federation, is more likely to join the EU than Turkey - the media

Europe allegedly hopes that the victory in the presidential election in Turkey will be given to the current leader Recep Tayip Erdogan, because in the event of the victory of his opponent, Kemal Kilichdaroglu, the process of negotiations on Turkish membership in the European Union is likely to be resumed again. The EU is allegedly unable to take both Kyiv and Ankara. EU leaders are now likely to formally start negotiations with Ukraine at the December Summit.

The high -ranking officials of the European Community are concerned that the desire to restore the dialogue with the EU and Turkey can complicate a very delicate discussion on expansion and Ukraine, although Kiev uses much wider political support for joining than Ankara. "The cost of adopting Ukraine - along with the Western Balkans - may be clear to the EU that Turkey will never join," the report said.

In the medium -term and long term, if Erdogan wins the elections, there will be further tension of Turkey with the EU. The negotiations regarding the accession of Ankara will remain frozen. Bilateral disputes between Turkey on the one hand and EU members Greece and Cyprus on the other also risk igniting the tension between Ankara and the entire block. It can also be a prerequisite for another Erdogan attempt to increase the flow of refugees and migrants to Europe.

It can also ignite military tension, especially if Turkey restores the hydrocarbon intelligence in the disputed waters. After the first round, the current head of the country Recep Tayyip Erdogan scored 49. 39% after processing 99% of ballots. Kilichdaroglu, his main rival, receives 44. 97%. The second round is expected.
