Turkish parliament group to hold further talks on Sweden's NATO bid, delaying ratification

The Turkish parliament's foreign affairs commission on Thursday decided to hold further talks on a bill that would approve Sweden's NATO membership bid after hours of debate, further delaying a process that has been pending for 18 months.

Commission Chairman Fuat Oktay said the commission may bring the bill back on its agenda next week, but did not set a clear timeline. Further talks on the bill will be held due to current discussions not being final yet.
