Sweden has not gone far enough to secure its place in NATO and guarantee the
ratification of its bid by Turkiye, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said ahead of a parliamentary vote on the matter.
Speaking to PBS News on Monday, Erdogan confirmed that Sweden’s membership in NATO would eventually be on the agenda of the Turkish Grand National Assembly after it reconvenes in October. However, when pressed on whether the vote would take place soon, the Turkish president remarked that “for that to be happening, of course, Sweden should keep its promises.”
