Turkey's parliamentary foreign affairs committee has approved Sweden's bid to join NATO, bringing the Nordic country one step closer to NATO membership. The decision comes after months of delays and high-level talks between Turkey and the United States. The protocol on Sweden's membership in NATO was first put on the agenda of the Foreign Affairs Commission on November 16. The measure must now be approved by the full Parliament. President Erdogan linked the approval to Ankara's request for F-16 fighter jets from the United States. The next step is for the issue to be considered by a full parliamentary vote. The decision is seen as a key step toward enlarging the Western bloc after 19 months of delays, during which Ankara demanded security-related concessions from Stockholm.
