Recep Tayyip Erdoğan "diagnosed" that Sweden is not keeping the agreed terms for joining NATO and pointed the finger at it.
Lest there be any doubt that Turkey is monitoring Sweden and Finland's process of "compliance" with the requirements for their entry into NATO, Recep Tayyip Erdogan sent his own message.
After the meeting of the Turkish cabinet on Monday, the Turkish president lashed out at Sweden, saying that at any moment Turkey can block the process.
"I would once again like to remind you that we will freeze the process if these countries do not take the necessary steps to fulfill our conditions. Sweden does not give a good image in this regard, especially with statements related to the opposition .. Our position is clear, the rest they know themselves," Erdogan said in a rather threatening tone.
Turkey, among others, has demanded the extradition of more than 70 Swedish citizens of Kurdish origin , including MP Amine Kakabave.
Speaking, finally, about the economic hardship in Turkey, Erdogan once again wanted to present a completely different, "idyllic" image.
"In the last 20 years the number of vehicles on our roads has tripled, we now have 26 million cars. People are finding it difficult to find cars to buy. We know very well the insidious intentions behind the slander and lies," he underlined.
