Description

FEUTURE EU 28 Country Report Luxembourg

The position of Luxembourg on Turkish accession to the EU is ambiguous. On the one hand, Luxembourg's governments have long defended the need to maintain a constructive dialogue between the EU and Turkey. This is a demand that was supported by the coalition governments of the Christian Social People's Party (CSV) and the Luxembourg Socialist Worker's Party (LSAP) under Jean Claude-Junker’s leadership, and also under the coalition government of the Democratic Party (DP), the LSAP and the Greens under the leadership of Xavier Bettel. On the other hand, the population has been opposed to Turkish accession to the EU and there has not been much enthusiasm for Turkish EU membership among the Luxembourgish political elites either.
