TL;DR

Turkey's parliament is expected to approve Sweden's NATO membership bid, marking a significant step in expanding the Western military alliance after 20 months of delays. Once ratified, Sweden's accession would only require approval from Hungary, which has invited Sweden's prime minister to negotiate joining the bloc. Turkey's delays in approving Sweden's bid have frustrated some Western allies and have been linked to U.S. approval of fighter jet sales to Turkey.
