Turkey submits bill to ratify Sweden’s Nato membership

President Erdoğan signs protocol and sends to parliament after agreeing to Sweden’s membership at Nato summit in July

Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has submitted a bill for Sweden’s Nato membership request to Turkey’s parliament for ratification, the Turkish presidency has said.

Turkey and Hungary are the only Nato members yet to ratify Sweden’s membership after Stockholm dropped its longstanding policy of non-alignment last year to apply after Russia’s war on Ukraine.
