The Turkish parliament has given its approval to Sweden’s membership of NATO, bringing the Nordic country especially closer to joining the Western military alliance after months in limbo.
MPs voted in favour of ratifying it late on Tuesday night. After a four-hour debate, 287 of 346 MPs voted yes, 35 against and the rest abstained. The Turkish president is anticipated to sign the bill into law in the coming days.
The Swedish prime minister, Ulf Kristersson, responded quickly to the news, saying: “Today we are one step closer to becoming a full member of NATO. Positive that the Grand General Assembly of Türkiye has voted in favour of Sweden’s Nato accession.”
