"Sweden's NATO Membership Approved by Hungary's Parliament"
TL;DR Summary
Hungary's parliament overwhelmingly ratified Sweden's bid to join Nato, clearing the path for the Nordic nation's membership. This move comes after a long delay and accusations from Hungary of Sweden being hostile. Prime Minister Viktor Orban's recent statement of being "prepared to die for each other" signaled a shift in Hungary's stance. The decision was almost unanimous, with 188 votes in favor and 6 against. Sweden's Prime Minister called it a "historic day" and Nato Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg welcomed the decision, making the alliance "stronger and safer".
