Turkiye's EU = Sweden's NATO

Dunno but suspect it'll be good for Sweden, good for Turkiye, and lots of headaches for EU. Maybe set some clear expectations up front and an easier way to kick out non-conforming members.

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, in an unexpected move, said on Monday the European Union should open the way for Ankara's accession to the bloc before Turkey's parliament approves Sweden's bid to join the NATO military alliance.

Turkey's bid to join the EU has been frozen for years after membership talks were launched in 2005 under Erdogan's first term as prime minister.
