NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg stressed that Turkey is an important NATO ally and all security concerns must be removed.
Stoltenberg said in a blog post on his social media accounts on Monday that he spoke on the phone with Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu.
He said they discussed the decision of Finland and Sweden to apply for NATO membership in Çavuşoğlu.
Stoltenberg added that Turkey is an important NATO ally and all security concerns should be removed and stressed the need to “be together in a historic moment”.
While Sweden and Finland plan to make an official request to join NATO soon, Turkey, which has been a member of the alliance for many years, has announced that it has not accepted the two countries ’expected move. .
Earlier, Erdogan said that Sweden and Finland did not take a clear stance against the terrorist organizations (Kurdistan Workers Party) that Turkey is fighting, and therefore Ankara could not agree to join NATO at this stage. .
