Closed petition Veto Turkey joining the EU until they cease their illegal occupation of Cyprus

Closed on

In July 1974, Turkish forces twice invaded and captured the island of Cyprus and now illegally occupy 40% of it. Cyprus is a member of the EU and Turkey wish to join. Countries that occupy member states illegally cannot join the EU but Turkey will be allowed to unless it is vetoed.
