BERLIN, October 8. /TASS/. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said during Wednesday’s evening talk show on the ARD television channel she was against Turkey’s full-fledged membership in the European Union.
"I have always been against Turkey’s full-fledged membership in the European Union and I still hold to this opinion," she said.
However, in her words, dialogue with Turkey was needed to solve the migration crisis facing Europe. "Naturally, we need each other," she added.
