In a big U-Turn, Turkey has put a condition on Sweden for its NATO entry. Turkey's President said that Sweden’s NATO bid depends on its actions against terrorism. This comes weeks after he agreed to clear Sweden's entry at the NATO summit in Vilnius. Turkey's crackdown on Kurdish terrorists demands is old but has been buried recently.

Cautioning against NATO, the Kremlin told Turkey to "never put on rose-tinted glasses." And now, Turkey has again repeated its old condition after backing Sweden. This report has full details.
