Spanning both Asia and Europe, Turkey follows the European model in politics, economy, and culture, and is a candidate country for the European Union. The constitution defines Turkey as a democratic, secular, and law-based state. Turkey has been actively moving closer to the EU, so in how many years will Turkey join the European Union?

 

Worldway Group has learned: According to the German newspaper Die Welt, Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Akdag recently stated in an interview that Turkey's clear goal is to join the European Union within the next 5 years, as this is a "symbolic date." Akdag explained that 2023 marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Republic of Turkey. "We have been on the path to becoming an EU member since 1959, and now it is time to join the union." Akdag also stated that from political, social, and economic perspectives, this is a "win-win" for both the EU and Turkey.

 

As the world's largest economic entity and trading bloc, the European Union holds significant influence in the current global landscape, allowing it to continuously shine on the international stage. For over a decade, the EU's eastward expansion process has been uninterrupted, becoming an indispensable topic on the agendas of many countries. The eastward expansion of the EU not only helps ensure security and stability in Europe but also contributes to achieving prosperity and growth in the European economy, while expanding the EU's influence on the global political and economic stage.

 

Turkey serves as a bridge connecting the Middle East and Europe, occupying a vital geographical position. Turkey holds an important place in the European market, with a particularly well-developed manufacturing sector. At the same time, Turkey is a NATO member, a founding member of the OECD, and a member of the G20. With a solid industrial base, it is a developing emerging economy and one of the fastest-growing countries in the world. It is believed that Turkey will realize its "EU dream" in the near future.

 

Turkey's foreign policy has three pillars: alignment with the U.S., integration with Europe, and good-neighborly relations. It also attaches importance to developing relations with Asia-Pacific countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea, and enjoys a high international status. If Turkey can join the EU, its investment potential will be further enhanced.

 

 

Currently, it is a great time to invest in Turkey. On September 19, 2018, the Turkish Parliament amended the Turkish Citizenship Law, drastically reducing the investment amount for citizenship through property purchase by 75%, from $1 million to $250,000, with the property only needing to be held for 3 years before it can be sold.

 

Turkey is the only major geographical, demographic, and economic power from the Eurasian continent among countries currently offering fast-track citizenship programs, and it is also the only major G20 country to offer a low-cost investment fast-track passport program. The Turkish passport program features a low investment amount, fast approval speed, visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 111 countries and regions, and eligibility to apply for U.S. E1 and E2 visas, combining numerous unique advantages. In the near future, the Turkish passport may be upgraded to an EU passport, and its value and significance are self-evident.
