Turkish President Recept Tayyip Erdogan on Monday submitted the formal protocol to admit Sweden into NATO to his country's parliament, ending several months of delay over accusations from Ankara that Stockholm was not doing enough to crack down on anti-Turkey Kurdish militant groups.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan waits for the start of a round table meeting of the North Atlantic Council during a NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, on July 11, 2023.
Finland’s application went through relatively quickly this spring, but Stockholm has been on the outside looking in as it tries to convince Mr. Erdogan to drop Turkey’s objections. “Glad to hear that Turkish President Erdogan has now handed over the ratification documents to the Turkish Parliament,” Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson wrote on social media, the Associated Press reported. “Now it remains for Parliament to deal with the issue. We look forward to becoming a member of NATO.”
Turkish lawmakers this spring approved Finland’s bid less than two weeks after receiving the signed protocol from Mr. Erdogan, whose party dominates the legislature.
