ເທີກີ ຄັດຄ້ານ ຟິນແລນ ແລະສວີເດນ ເຂົ້າຮ່ວມ NATO, Erdogan ກ່າວ

Topline

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Friday his country opposes Finland and Sweden joining NATO, potentially blocking the two countries’ hopes for a quick accession into the alliance, as all 30 members have to approve new countries.

ຂໍ້ເທັດຈິງສໍາຄັນ

Erdogan told reporters Turkey is following the developments with Finland and Sweden carefully, “but we don’t hold positive views,” ອ້າງຕາມ Reuters ລາວເວົ້າ.

Erdogan said he was opposed to the two countries joining because of their support for Kurdish militants and others that Turkey considers to be terrorist organizations, claiming “Scandinavian countries are guesthouses for terrorist organisations.”

ຟິນ​ແລນ ແລະ ປາ, along with some Western allies, have offered continued support to the Kurdish people and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, while Turkey has been ຕໍ່ສູ້ຕ້ານ ກຸ່ມປະກອບອາວຸດຊາວເຄີດ ເປັນເວລາຫຼາຍສິບປີ.

A senior Turkish official ບອກ Bloomberg that Turkey wants Finland and Sweden to take a clear stance against Kurdish militants fighting in southeast Turkey, and that Turkey will hold negotiations over their membership.

Erdogan also said Turkey would not repeat the same “mistake” of allowing Greece to rejoin NATO’s military wing in 1980, claiming that Greece is trying to use NATO against Turkey, in a maritime dispute between the two countries, the Associated Press ບົດລາຍງານ.

Turkey’s opposition comes one day after Finland’s president and prime minister said they support Finland applying to join NATO “without delay,” and in contrast with several European countries showing support ສໍາລັບການເຄື່ອນໄຫວ.

ຄວາມເປັນມາຫຼັກ

Finland and Sweden have been conducting new security reviews following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson ກ່າວວ່າ last month “the security landscape has completely changed” after February 24, the day Russia invaded. NATO is a 30-country alliance joined together by a ຂໍ້ຕົກລົງຄວາມປອດໄພ that says “an attack against one ally is considered as an attack against all allies,” and requires NATO countries to provide military aid if a member country is attacked. Turkey and Greece joined NATO in 1952. Finland, which declared independence from Russia in 1917, shares an 810-mile border with the country.

ສິ່ງທີ່ຄວນສັງເກດເບິ່ງ

Sweden is expected to reveal its decision on whether it will apply to join the alliance on Sunday, the Associated Press reports. Finland’s foreign minister ຊີ້ບອກ last month Sweden could make its decision on joining NATO within days of Finland’s announcement. Sweden and Finland’s decision could be complicated by Turkey’s opposition, as all 30 NATO members must unanimously approve new countries.

ຄຳ ເວົ້າທີ່ ສຳ ຄັນ

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has repeatedly ກ່າວວ່າ he expects that “all allies will welcome” Sweden and Finland, if they choose to apply for membership. Stoltenberg has not publicly commented on Turkey’s claims, and a representative for NATO did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Forbes.
