Sweden should not wait for favor from Ankara on the issue of NATO membership after the shares of supporters of terrorism and enemies of Muslims who took place in Stockholm, said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
“These dirty actions in Sweden, and even near our diplomatic muspline, are considered an insult to both Muslims, and in general all people, all rights and freedoms. You continue to support terrorists and are waiting for support for joining NATO. So it will not go. Sweden not. It is worth waiting for this support from us, ”said Erdogan.
As the Turkish Minister of Defense of Hulushi Akar, Sweden and Finland previously stated, reject Turkey’s requests for cooperation in the fight against terrorism.
January 22, deputy head of the ruling Turkish party of justice and development (PSR), Numan Kurtulmush said that Ankara expects from Stockholm to strict fulfillment of all obligations to counteract terrorism, which are provided for by a memorandum signed with it.
Before that, the protesters in Turkey burned the flag of Sweden near the country of the country in Istanbul in response to a provocation with the Qur’an in Stockholm.
