TL;DR

Hungary's parliament voted to approve Sweden's NATO membership, making Sweden the 32nd member of the alliance. This decision comes after months of diplomatic negotiations and opposition from Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's party. Sweden's accession to NATO expands the alliance's presence in Northern Europe and follows Turkey's recent agreement to ratify Sweden's membership. The move signifies a historic shift in Sweden's military policy and aims to bolster NATO's defenses in the region.
