Turkey will not support the membership of Finland and Sweden in NATO until both countries fulfill their obligations to fight terrorist organizations, the country’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday, TASS reports.
"We made our position clear at the NATO summit in Madrid. NATO membership of countries where members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party [PKK] freely roam the streets is detrimental to the values of the alliance. With respect to Finland and Sweden, we have a clear and strong position. Until they keep their word, Turkey will not approve the membership of the two countries in NATO," Erdogan said in Ankara, speaking at a meeting with Turkish ambassadors to foreign countries.
