Despite major advancements in human rights and women's rights in recent years, Turkey faces "difficulties regarding freedom of expression, as many other countries have pointed out. The subject of whether journalists are working freely is also an issue," Stoltenberg said during talks with Parliament Speaker Cemil Çiçek Monday.

1. Ukraine became Migraine of the Year 2011

Every year the Economist Group presents a rating that is known as Heroes and Villains. In 2011 Ukraine got the Migraine Award because of its notorious regime that fights own people and of course because of Tymoshenko’s case that showed that trial is politically loaded and unfair. I wonder how Europe could help Ukraine that doesn’t even try to become more democratic and open. So is it worth trying helping them? We can’t force them if they don’t want do well. And today it seems they want to get all benefits from Europe not lifting a finger. It never worked, so they deserved the award.
