NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg on Monday urged a quick vote by Turkey’s parliament to approve Sweden’s membership in the alliance, after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan officially submitted the application.
“I welcome President Erdogan’s signature of the accession protocol for Sweden and its referral to the Grand National Assembly. I look forward to a speedy vote to ratify, and to welcoming Sweden as a full NATO ally very soon,” Stoltenberg said in a statement.
