Turkey’s challenge to Old Europe

Commentary feature in which author suggest that that much of Europe is in self-denial about Turkey. 'It thinks that if it closes its eyes the future can be wished away. But the world will not stop turning at its behest. Locking out Turkey will not forestall its rise but serve only to push it away. The choice for Europe is simple: it can share power or it can watch it slipping away.'
