23 Sep 2004, Brussels, Belgium --- Turkish Prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan (L) and EU Commission President Romano Prodi before a meeting at the EU headquarter in Brussels. Erdogan has told European Union officials that his country's new penal code would not include the controversial proposal to outlaw adultery. Earlier on Thursday Erdogan - in Brussels ahead of a key report on whether the EU should open entry talks with Turkey - committed himself to push the penal code changes through parliament as soon as possible and said his government was working "very seriously" to implement all its reforms. --- Image by © Thierry Tronnel/Corbis
