Türkiye’s Erdogan says it is “unacceptable” that PKK supporters in Sweden continue to organise demonstrations, recruit people and “finance terrorist groups”
Turkish President Erdogan to German Chancellor Scholz during a phone call that PKK supporters in Sweden continue to organise demonstrations, recruit people, and "finance terror groups".Several NATO allies, including the US, hope Türkiye to approve Sweden's NATO bid ahead of a summit in the Lithuanian capital, Vilnius, set for July 11-12, but there are still several outstanding issues that Ankara says Stockholm must fulfill before it will give its approval.
Erdogan's remarks came during a phone conversation with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, according to a statement by the Turkish Communications Directorate. The Turkish president told Scholz that Sweden is taking steps in the right direction, citing Stockholm’s recent anti-terrorism moves, but said Ankara finds it “unacceptable” that the YPG/PYD/PKK supporters in Sweden continue to organise demonstrations, recruit people, and provide financial support to terrorist groups.
Although Türkiye approved Finland's membership to NATO, it is waiting for Sweden to abide by a trilateral memorandum signed last June in Madrid to address Ankara's security concerns.
