Sweden is ready to join NATO, says FM

Sweden is ready to join NATO and is waiting for Türkiye to start the process to ratify the application, Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Billstrom said.

Sweden applied last year to join the defence alliance but Türkiye and Hungary have yet to approve the bid.

"We are completely ready and we are waiting for the ratification process to start in Ankara," Billstrom told a news conference in Riga after meetings of Nordic and Baltic foreign ministers.
