		</div><p>Jean-Claude Juncker has insisted that Turkey must meet all conditions for its citizens to win visa-free travel in Europe, a key plank of the EU-Turkey migrant deal.</p>
<p>The European Commission President said in his address that &#8220;visa liberalisation will only happen if all of the necessary conditions are fulfilled by the Turkish side&#8221;.</p>
<p>But he also called for patience, saying Turkey has tough issues to resolve to meet the conditions &#8211; which include redefining what constitutes a terrorist act to ensure that journalists and academics are not targeted.</p>
<p>Turkey has been struck by several suicide bombings and a thwarted military coup in July and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is refusing to soften his line.</p>
<p>Mr Juncker said he hopes that Ankara will fulfil the visa waiver requirements, but acknowledged it might not happen &#8220;necessarily in the set timetable&#8221;.</p>
<p>The visa waiver was supposed to have been granted in July, but was then delayed until October.</p>
<p>EU and Turkish officials now say they expect it &#8220;in coming months&#8221;.</p>
