US: Turkey’s reaction to Sweden-Finland accession prospect does not affect bilateral relations

LAST UPDATE: 22.27

Turkey’s approach to Sweden and Finland’s NATO accession process is not a bilateral issue between Washington and Ankara, a State Department spokesman said today, adding that the Biden government is convinced that there will be a consensus on the issue.

Sweden and Finland formally applied for membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization on Wednesday, almost three months after the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Turkey has strongly opposed the Nordic countries joining NATO, demanding that they lift the arms embargo on them, and in particular that Sweden stop offering shelter to members of the PKK, which Ankara considers a “terrorist organization”.
