Sweden may not win Turkey’s support to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization next month as the country’s new anti-terror law is failing to crack down on Kurdish militants, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said.
“Sweden’s expectations don’t mean we’ll meet them,” Erdogan told Turkish media. “Sweden must first of all eradicate what this terrorist organization is doing. In this picture, we can’t have a positive approach.”
