Swedish Foreign Minister Anne Linde said today that she was expected to hold a bilateral meeting with her Turkish counterpart Mevlüt Çavuşo .lu, following Ankara’s allegations of support for terrorist organizations by her country, CNN reported.

Yesterday, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said he “does not view positively” Finland and Sweden’s moves to join NATO, accusing the two countries of sponsoring Kurdish “terrorist organizations”.

The same accusations were made today by M. Tsavousoglou, attending the working dinner of the informal meeting of the NATO Foreign Ministers, describing as “unacceptable and outrageous that our friends and allies support terrorist organizations”.

For her part, speaking to the Swedish television station SVT, Swedish Foreign Minister Ann Linde stated that “we have a very good and constructive relationship”.

She added: “We have met many times in the past and we have never heard of any problems in the event of a request for NATO membership. But now, there are newer indications from President Erdogan. So I will try to get to the point of what we see any misunderstandings “.
