Turkey's progress towards accession

This procedure is an initiative report assessing Turkey's progress in meeting the criteria required to join the European Union. It evaluates the country's alignment with EU standards in areas such as politics, law, and economics to determine the current status of its membership bid.

The report primarily affects the diplomatic relations between the EU and Turkey. It provides a roadmap for Turkish authorities and informs EU member states on whether accession negotiations should proceed, pause, or be modified.
