Gül and Erdogan not on the same track vis-à-vis the EU

Obviously, Gül and Erdogan are not on the same track vis-à-vis the European Union: “The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is not an alternative to the European Union, two of Turkey’s top officials said yesterday, as the prime minister said the way the EU had strung Turkey along was unforgivable and no longer bearable. President Abdullah Gül reiterated the Shanghai Five, or SCO, and the EU are not alternatives to each other.”
