“…Target governments have only accepted such consequences of compliance in the "endgame" of accession negotiations, that is, when the decision of the European Union or NATO to open or conclude accession negotiations was imminent. 9 For instance, the government of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus complied immediately before the referendum in 2004 that would decide the inclusion of the Republic in the European Union, and Estonia and Latvia complied with demands for minority rights just in time for accession negotiations to be opened or completed, although in each case, compliance caused coalition crises. In these situations, the (moderate) power costs of compliance were discounted against the imminent (and thus extremely credible) high benefits of membership.…”
