Answer 2

I bet some reactionary idiot says "the UK".

Answer 3

None at the moment. Albania is likely to be the first Muslim nation admitted to the EU. Turkey should be admitted and is more economically sound than Albania, but it has a large stigma to overcome.

Answer 4

There are none at the moment, but Turkey wants to join the E.U. in itself this should not be a problem, providing any Muslim country joining is prepared to accept the rules of the E.U. but judging by Turkeys human rights record and most of the other Muslim countries, this is unlikely to happen. No Muslim country should be eligible to membership until it has filled the criteria required by the E.U. One of the biggest sticking point for Muslim countries is making woman equal to men, as they have a problem with this, it may well be many years before one of these countries joins.

Answer 5

There are no Muslim countries in the EU.

Turkey has applied to join the EU, and has been an associate member since 1963. It is a Muslim country in as much as the majority of the population are Muslim, but it has a secular (i.e. non-religious) government, so it's not a Muslim country in the same sense that Iran would be for instance.

Answer 6

Most Immigrants in UK, France, or Germany are Muslims

Turkey is in Europe and is Muslim.

Answer 7

none yet. that is one of the reasons why some more conservative members of the EU are trying to block Turkey from entering. this is despite the fact that Turkey is oppressively secular.
