Sweden, Finland and Turkey to resume NATO membership talks in March

Negotiations between Sweden, Finland and Turkey on NATO membership will be resumed in March, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said. According to him, the parties confirmed this.

Mr. Kristersson did not name the exact date of the talks. “There is another date. It’s not a secret, but we are waiting for confirmation,” he told the TV channel. STV.

Finland and Sweden applied to join NATO in May 2022. Turkey initially opposed the expansion of the alliance, as it accused the countries of harboring people whom Ankara considers terrorists. Turkey later agreed to NATO expansion under a number of conditions. However, the decision regarding Sweden stalled against the backdrop of an action in Stockholm with the burning of the Koran at the Turkish embassy.

About the prospects for expanding the alliance – in the material “Kommersant” “It is NATO to them.”
