Commissioner Fine indicated that areas in positive agenda would include legislative alignment, visas, mobility and migration, Customs Union, foreign policy, political reforms, fight against terrorism, enhanced energy cooperation and increased participation in people to people programmes. The idea and the aim of the agenda was to keep the accession process of Turkey going not to replace it as expressed both by the two sides and in order to achieve this working groups containing experts from the Commission and their counterparts from Turkish ministries focusing on eight negotiation chapters namely on Judicary and Fundamental Rights and the others were established.
