Abstract
In 1963, during the Ankara agreements, Turkey made its first request to be integrated into the European Union. Forty years later Turkey still isn't part of the EU even though the recognition of Turkey as a candidate for accession into the Union has been done during the Helsinki European Council in December 1999. During all this time, Turkey has made a lot of efforts to be integrated into the Union. The country has been encouraged to continue its progress towards complying with both its economic and political criteria. But in fact, most of the Member States are still against this integration. To create a positive image of Turkey as a European Country, a campaign has been established first in France and then transferred to other European countries. Firstly, we have to study the country, its history, geography, economical and political contexts. Secondly, we have to do the campaign. The campaign will be divided into two parts: first, a conference for all the intellectuals of France and a forum for the rest of the population. Second, we see what has to be done to transfer the campaign to the rest of the countries of the European Union.
