TL;DR Summary

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg will travel to Turkey to discuss Sweden's NATO membership, which has been delayed due to objections from Turkey and Hungary. Some NATO foreign ministers expressed optimism that Turkey would lift its objections to Stockholm's bid to join the military alliance now that the election is over. Stoltenberg noted that Sweden had implemented new terrorism legislation, addressing a key Turkish concern. Several foreign ministers expressed confidence Sweden could become a member before or at a NATO summit in July in Vilnius, Lithuania.
