"We oppose TTIP in its current form."
Body:

The European Greens have voiced strong criticism and concerns over the current negotiations of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), at their Electoral Convention. This treaty, which is about much more than trade, couls have irreversibly negative impacts on European citizens’ daily lives. But it could also fundamentally limit Europe’s democratic freedom to legislate on the environment, on health, on finances and other matters. This is why we're challenging the legitimacy and the content of these negotiations.

Turkey now needs greater freedom, not a censored internet
Body:

The European Green Party (EGP) have joined with Yeşiller ve Sol Gelecek Partisi, the Turkish Green party, to condemn the new law which would give the transport and communications minister sweeping powers to order the removal of websites which are deemed to infringe on privacy. It would also restrict access to proxy sites which allow users to work around censorship laws, and force internet providers to keep information about their customers' habits online.
