Turkey ‘not closing door’ to Sweden, Finland NATO entry, Erdogan advisor says

  1. Givetvis handlar det om förhandling. Som det mesta med Erdogans relation till Europa/väst.
    Man kan ju dock hoppas att det hela ger svenskar, såväl politiker som vanligt folk, en liten tankeställare om vad det är för typ av nationer/ledare vi potentiellt är på väg att ingå en militärallians med.

  2. “Asked whether Turkey risked being too transactional at a time of war, and when Finnish and Swedish public opinion favours NATO membership, he said: “One hundred percent of our population is very upset with the PKK and FETO (Gulenist) presence in Europe.”

    “If they (Finland and Sweden) have a public concerned about their own national security, we have a public that is equally concerned about our own security,” he said. “We have to see this from a mutual point of view.”

    Kalin said Russia’s sharp criticism of Finland and Sweden over their plans was not a factor in Turkey’s position.”

    i genuinely think any such deal with sweden would be written on sand and hence turkey should have simply vetoed swedens bid
