The Ottoman Empire isn't european neither Turkey (only 3% in East Thracia), but i can accept a turkish people as european if he/she looks european and he/she accept our culture, values, lifestyle so if his/her culture isn't muslim. Islam was always enemy of european civilization remember for ottomans, moors, muslim mongols etc.
