Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said on October 3 he cannot say if his country’s NATO membership application will be approved by the Turkish parliament this month.
"I cannot promise that our NATO membership will be approved in October. This decision belongs to Türkiye, and Türkiye makes its own decisions," he told reporters, Anadolu reports.
He said Stockholm and Ankara agreed that the approval process for Sweden's membership would be sent to the Turkish parliament "as soon as possible" after the opening of parliament.
"Now the parliament is open. I think it is time for Sweden's NATO membership to be ratified," he said.
