The Alliance Formally Invites Finland and Sweden to Join It
Summary by NewsWall Apr 27 23
- The NATO offer to Finland and Sweden comes just one day after Turkey abandoned its opposition to their membership.
- The historic agreement, which follows Turkey's agreement to a memorandum with the two Nordic countries, demonstrates how President Vladimir V. Putin's war in Ukraine has backfired, undermining Russian efforts to weaken NATO and pushing Sweden and Finland, which had been neutral and nonaligned for decades, into the alliance's arms.
- "As NATO allies, Finland and Sweden commit to fully support Turkey against threats to its national security," said NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, revealing some of the agreement's contents.
- From Helsinki, Finland, Johanna Lemola provided reporting.
