Tímea Szabó told an online press conference that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had submitted a bill on Monday to ratify Sweden’s NATO accession. After this, Hungary is the only NATO member that has yet to ratify Sweden’s NATO accession, she added.

Orban will embarrass Hungary if he keeps the country as the last holdout on Swedish accession to NATO confirming to all that he is an ally of Moscow. The only recourse left will be to kick the Hungarian Russophiles out of NATO. Sweden would be an infinitely more valuable member. Oh, and keep in mind that Hungary’s entire air force is Swedish supplied.
