Sweden and Finland appear to have made some progress today in their NATO membership talks with Turkey. According to a spokesman for President Erdoğan, Turkey has observed "a positive approach" with the two Scandinavian candidate countries.

In particular, it would be about Turkey's objections regarding Sweden's and Finland's arms embargo against Turkey.

Today, senior officials from the three countries met for five hours in Ankara. Turkey is the only NATO member state threatening to block the NATO membership of Sweden and Finland. The main Turkish objection is that Sweden and to a lesser extent Finland would support the Kurdistan Workers' Party PKK and other Kurdish groups.
