Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Billström said negotiations on the country’s NATO membership have been suspended. This happened after the action with the burning of the Koran at the Turkish Embassy in Stockholm, which was agreed with the authorities. TASS writes about it.

“The events of the last few weeks have temporarily put the process on hold, but of course it remains relevant that without a complied memorandum, we will not do our part, and therefore the government is now also investing energy and time in making progress on this. process,” Billstrom said.

Sweden is still counting on joining NATO after the Vilnius summit. Although, according to the politician, “recent events have not alleviated the situation”, the action provoked an angry reaction from Turkey. Erdogan said “no one has the right to insult holy Muslims or people of other religions and beliefs,” and advised Sweden not to wait for Ankara’s support to join NATO.

Earlier, the Finnish authorities announced that they would not join NATO before Sweden. Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson noted that the country cannot yet join NATO, as it is not ready to meet all of Turkey’s conditions. Some of them he called impossible.
