Greece's position on the possible accession of Turkey to the European Union has been a topic which has been investigated and discussed by many scholars in the past 20 years. However, there are few books which actually explain in detail the actual shift of Greece's position towards Turkey's EU membership prospects. This book attempts to provide the reader with a time line of the events and analysis of how Greece shifted from being Turkey's stumbling block in its path to EU accession to becoming its most ardent supporter among EU member states. The analysis is supported not only by the presentation of historical events, but also through a focus on the people who influenced this change and played an important part in the gradual shift of Greece's political position towards its neighbor. The analysis should help readers better understand what happened in the years leading to the Helsinki EU meeting in 1999 and how that helped transform Greece's position from then on. The book provides an easy to understand explanation to the events which should be useful for scholars, students and anyone who is interested in the subject in Greece, Turkey and beyond.
