Bulgaria and Romania have made significant progress in the past year in their efforts to meet the accession criteria, according to the regular reports adopted on 5 November 2003 by the European Commission. Their objective of accession in 2007 must remain the firm focus of these two countries' preparation and the Commission will support them in achieving this goal. The Commission also welcomes the determined efforts and progress of Turkey towards meeting the political and economic criteria for accession, but underlines at the same time that further efforts are needed.
