NATO Accession Hopes and Delays for Sweden, Finland, and Turkey
TL;DR Summary
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson hopes for "rapid ratification" of NATO membership for his country following elections in Turkey. However, Sweden's accession requires unanimous support from all member states of the alliance, including Turkey, which has in the past objected to Stockholm's membership. Finnish President Sauli Niinisto is set to visit Turkey on Thursday to discuss bilateral relations between the two countries, as well as Finland and Sweden's NATO membership bid.
