NATO Membership: Finland and Turkey in Talks, Sweden Left Out

Turkey is expected to ratify Finland's NATO membership, but not Sweden's, as President Erdogan seeks to appeal to nationalist voters ahead of an election. Hungary has also delayed a parliamentary vote on the matter, leading to speculation that it could be using the issue as leverage in its battle with the European Union. NATO officials remain confident that both countries will eventually join, but until then, officials will continue to shuttle between capitals to cut a deal while Russia wages war.
