Ankara would not make any concessions in anti-terror legislation in order to establish a visa-free regime with the European Union, Turkish Presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kalin said on Wednesday, Sputnik News reports.
''We have met 72 criteria, as promised. And now, the European Union asks us to change the approach to the struggle against terrorism. These recommendations indicate that the European Union has a vague picture of the situation in Turkey. The implementation of these recommendations means the encouragement, if not a support, of terrorism, a chance for terrorists to strengthen their positions. We cannot take such a step, this is out of question," Kalin told reporters.
