00:00 In order to grant his approval for the NATO entry into Sweden, Turkish President Erdogan
00:05 wants a deal on fighter jets with the USA.
00:08 Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has linked his country's approval for the NATO
00:13 entry into Sweden to a fighter jet deal with the USA.
00:17 "If you keep your word, our parliament will also keep its word," Erdogan said on Tuesday
00:24 in reference to talks with US Foreign Minister Antony Blinken.
00:27 The USA would also link the F-16 fighter jets with Sweden's NATO entry, said Erdogan.
00:35 In order for Sweden to be included in the alliance, it still needs approval from Turkey
00:41 and also from Hungary.
00:44 In view of the Russian attack war on Ukraine, the country had applied for NATO membership
00:50 together with Finland in May 2022.
00:54 Sweden was welcomed as a 31st member at the beginning of April.
00:58 Turkey wants to buy new F-16 fighter jets and modern equipment from the USA.
01:05 The US government supports the equipment of existing F-16 fighter jets and the provision
01:12 of new jets for Turkey.
01:15 However, the counter-wind is coming from senators in the USA.
01:18 The Turkish parliament could vote on Sweden's NATO entry after the reopening in early October.
01:26 Hungary's approval will fail first of all under its Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
01:32 There is nothing that Hungary would push for, he said on Monday in the Budapest parliament.
01:37 As a justification, he pulled up a video from 2019 that is allegedly shown in Swedish schools
01:44 and would see doubts about the state of democracy in Hungary.
01:49 Observers in Budapest, however, assume that Hungary's parliament will ratify Sweden's
01:56 NATO entry as soon as Turkey does.
