Turkey supports Finland and Sweden Nato bid

George Wright, BBC  |  4 hours ago


Nato membership would end over 200 years of Swedish non-alignment

Nato member Turkey has agreed to support Sweden and Finland's membership of the alliance.

It had initially opposed the Nordic countries' bids to join.

Turkey was angered by what it saw as their willingness to host Kurdish militants. Sweden and Finland could not join Nato without Turkey's support.

Russia strongly opposes the two states joining and has used the expansion of the West's defensive military alliance as a pretext for its war in Ukraine.

But Moscow's invasion has had the opposite effect, with the path now clear for the two countries to join Nato.

Foreign ministers from the three countries signed a joint security pact that addressed Turkey's concerns.  .  .

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
