Sweden’s NATO membership protocol might be ratified in the Turkish parliament before October, Sweden’s minister of foreign affairs Tobias Billström said to TV4, Ednews reports.
Türkiye’s ratification might be faster, he said: “We must wait because the Turkish parliament has not yet gone on summer vacation”.
Billström said that according to his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan’s statement, parliament could even open while on vacation.
“If you are able to open the parliament whenever you like, then you are able to realize our ratification whenever possible as well”, he added.
