Comment by Foreign Minister Tsahkna on the decision of the Turkish Parliament to approve Sweden's accession into NATO
I welcome Türkiye's decision, which helps our good friend and neighbour Sweden take a significant step closer to joining NATO. Sweden becoming the 32nd member state of NATO takes the partnership of Estonia and Sweden to a new level and makes it possible to cooperate even more closely on defence and security. Sweden's NATO membership significantly increases the security of the Baltic Sea region, improves the security of supply of NATO's Eastern Flank and reinforces the entire Alliance.
I sent my Swedish and Turkish colleagues messages of congratulations, noting that it is a significant decision because Sweden's accession makes NATO even stronger.
