Leader of the far-right Danish political party Stram Kurs Rasmus Paludan burns a copy of the Qoran during a manifestation outside the Turkish embassy in Stockholm, Sweden, January 21, 2023. - REUTERSPIX: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned Sweden on Monday that it should not expect his backing to join NATO following the burning of the Quran outside Ankara's embassy in Stockholm.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has promised that his parliament would approve the two bids next month. “It is clear that those who caused such a disgrace in front of our country’s embassy can no longer expect any benevolence from us regarding their application for NATO membership,“ Erdogan said.“I cannot comment on the statement tonight. First, I want to understand exactly what was said,“ Foreign Minister Tobias Billstrom told Sweden’s TT news agency.
Sweden's courtship of Turkey appeared to be making headway with a flurry of visits by top ministers to Ankara.
