The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Turkish Parliament approved Finland’s NATO membership on Thursday. The matter is expected to be considered by the Turkish Parliament in the near future.

Finland the ratification schedule of Sweden, which applied for NATO membership at the same time, is still open.

Turkey has announced that it is not yet ready to ratify Sweden’s membership because the country has not yet progressed sufficiently in the matters agreed upon in the tripartite document between Turkey, Sweden and Finland.

Hungary plans to ratify only Finland’s membership on Monday.
