"Turkey to Approve Sweden's NATO Membership Bid Despite Hungarian Opposition"

TL;DR Summary
Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Billström rejected Hungary's call to negotiate about Sweden's bid to join NATO, stating that there is no reason to negotiate at this point and expressing hope for Hungary to ratify membership soon. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán called for a meeting and stressed the need for "strong mutual trust" between the two countries, inviting his Swedish counterpart to visit Hungary for discussions. This comes as Turkey's parliament is set to ratify Sweden's NATO bid, leaving Hungary as the last NATO country stalling on Stockholm's application.
