      Like it will make any difference lol. It’s a sound bite to make Erdogan look victorious for the Turkish population. After all, the only reason Erdogan originally opposed Sweden was to drum up support for the election.

      Sweden will say ‘Maybe we should reconsider Turkey?’

      EU: No.

      Sweden: Oh well, guess I tried.

        Sweden: “come on, what’s keeping you guys from accepting?”

        Eu: “Turkey’s failure and/or refusal to meet our absolute minimum requirements for membership”

        Sweden: “gotcha, well, we did our part!”

      Are you anti Sweden in NATO or anti Turkey in EU? The guys below think the second while on the face of it it sounds like the first.
