Turkey will approve our NATO application in a few weeks, says Sweden’s Foreign Minister Tobias Billström.
On Tuesday, Billström met his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan in connection with the NATO foreign ministers’ meeting in Brussels.
– Then he said that he hopes that Sweden will be able to become a member within a couple of weeks, says Billström to the news agency TT.
But whether that means exactly two weeks or even longer, he did not want to go into.
On the same day, NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg stated that he is disappointed that Sweden is not yet a member and made a clear call to Turkey:
– The time has come for Turkey to ratify the application.
