, but sweden is not joining nato today. what are the chances of sweden being getting into the alliance soon, terry? well, there's a lot of pressure on turkey not to keep sweden out of the alliance. the other allies are, are warning turkey and to be fair hungry, which also hasn't ratified sweet. and yet that the alliance will be weakened as a whole. if you leave that gap there in the north, this is what sweden field, and this is what other allies are telling turkey. but you know, we really don't know if and when turkey is going to drop it's objections, because you have nato teeth. ians dalton berg and sweden and finland, vo saying, hey, we fulfilled all the promises we made to you at the madrid summit last july. let us in turkey has not signaled that it's willing to do that. there are elections coming up in turkey and, and it is believed that rhetoric tie a bear to one that the turkish president wants to use this issue to try to gain more votes. so it, after the turkish elections, thing things may shake loose a little bit fo

_ when sweden is not ready tojoin yet? i— when sweden is not ready to 'oin et?that _ yet? i am glad and proud to be the secretary general that can - yet? i am glad and proud to be the| secretary general that can welcome finland as a fully fledged member of the alliance. this is important for nato, important for finland, not least for the nordic region and the baltic region, you look at the map and understand how important finland is for the nordic and baltic security and of course finland brings high capabilities, substantial forces, brings high capabilities, substantialforces, and brings high capabilities, substantial forces, and also advanced defence industry into the alliance. but personally, i am also glad because i am from norway, i work with finland and politicians in finland for many years and not so many years ago we thought it was unthinkable that finland would become a member, now they are a fully fledged member of the alliance and that is truly historic and a result that demonstrates finland is a sovereign and independent country, they make their own

now to let sweden in. so there are certainly going to be a lot of bilaterals with turkish foreign minister shopping show lou here at nato headquarters. i know that the swedes are going to have a talk with him. try to get some more clarity on when turkey may be ready to drop its opposition. you have nato secretary general young stoughton berg and the swedes saying they believe they have done everything they pledge to anchor to do at the last summit in madrid. and that now there should be nothing more holding up the swedish bid. terry, thank you very much. that was our course monetary sholtes there just outside nato headquarters in brussels on the day that nato has officially welcome finland as it 31st member. i'm terry martin from me and all of us here at dw news. thanks for watching. ah, 3 . ah ah ah ah ah ah. a pulse a beginning of a story that moves us and takes us along for the ride. it's only about to perspective culture information. this is d w. news warner w. made from mines kick off with 90 minutes

also on the accession of a, of sweden, so or sweden wolf become a member. we're working hard to ensure that that happens as soon as possible, but it is important to remember that sweden is not left alone is not as if no one cares about sweden. all alice cares about sweden or alice. i actually provided a bilateral security assurances to sweden, allies have increased their presence in the region, and sweden is at the table, the sweetness participating more and more in, in, in our military and, and civilian structures. as is inconceivable that there be any attack on military trip against sweden without natal or reacting. and that's even more or so with finland inside. i saw a sin and that is the much better because now than before the applied and you and show that also are a full member as soon as possible. thank you very much. i'm afraid that's all we have. so was your, you were watching at our, the yeah, nato secretary general against stalsen burger. taking her questions after our meeting are fair alliances. ukraine a council. i'm, let's go to our correspond

i am not speaking specifically for sweden, although it is certainly positive for sweden, but in europein general, if we look at the m-th report also all at or on the site of the european commission, where a lot of research programs like and funds like the edfrom defense fund with absolutely astronomical sums that the european commission allocates for m-m e-e around scientific-research and practical industrial works in in the field of defense and security, in short. we were even surprised with our colleagues here, how many in principle work in sweden in business and industry , completely different for the needs of defense . companies that generally work in different chains. by the way, sap's quarterly report was released last week, well, it is, of course , the largest swedish defense concern, so saab's net profit for the first quarter of this year more than doubled from 400 million czech crowns to more than 900 million general by the way, the director said that this is connected not so much and not only with the help of ukraine in general, but actually with the order e . appropriations

we have are all the way been working together with sweden. we continue helping them as much as possible. i have been discussing with the president dared on you have been discussing many times and her i think her at least i am. i have a very positive outlook for that. just to to concur with the president, nina. so we are both saying closer contractor with concord order with the rest into iran. i. i went to uncle and her few weeks ago, and that was where we agreed on the way forward or both when it comes to this. so find ratification over of fin, none. but also that we agree to re start the process in what to call that collateral permanent mechanism with finn and sweden and turkey her to follow up on the trial after all on memorandum all standing that was signed in madrid presenter installs. there we were, i was there and the and the and now it's important to follow up and to insure that sir walden important element, which is actually to finalize the the membership process and not only for finance, but also for sweden, is fully implemented. and

not complete without that of sweden. -- finland's participation is not complete without that of sweden. i look forward to seeing sweden join as the 32nd member at the summit in july. i want to thank you, mr. secretary-general, for your gifts and your people. your help has been very important. you have been propping us in every moment of this procedure. we give much value to that and to our partners. thank you. [applause] >> finland's flag will now be raised while the national anthem is played. it will be raised simultaneously at nato headquarters and nato strategic command, headquarters in belgium, as well as the atp headquarters in norfolk, virginia.

and of course sweden as well to join the alliance. now that might not make sense to some people because of course, you're gaining a 1300 kilometer border with russia. but everyone inside nato feels that it's much better to have nato securing that border than to leave finland alone. should there ever be a risk on that border with russia? and so what changes is freeman's expected to see now. there won't be many changes i finland as has been integrated with nato very, very closely as a partner, as has sweden for many years. for decades. finish soldiers have had exercised with nato soldiers, a lot of interoperability, which is why finland was able to access to accede to the organization so quickly. so i think what will change is the feeling of fins that they will never again be left alone as they felt they were after world war 2 in the winter war. they know that if russia were to step until across the finish border, that 30 other countries are bound to come to their defense. and russia has warned about a potential consequences of a nato t

so we don't have clarity on exactly when sweden will be joining finland. sweden had hoped to join together in that certainly a message were likely to hear from other members of the lights the day that there is still a hope that when i go in this summer in the summer here in europe, there will be a major nato summit and that by that time, it is hoped by many, including nato secretary general, yet stilton berg that sweden too, will be a member of this alliance. but as you mentioned, it points to some disunity as turkey and hungry r, as i mentioned it still holding out and still not giving any clarity on when stockholm will be signing up. rosie, thank you very much. our correspond, rosie birch out there in brussels, to catch up on some other stories making headlines around the world today. russia has awarded the border of valor metal to leveling tazarsky, the pro war military blogger killed in an explosion of the st. petersburg cafe on sunday. the kremlin is treating the blast as a terrorist act and has accused ukraine of orchestrating. the incident could now see the russian parliament moved

and sweden isn't russia? of course i'm no fan of this expansion answers warned about potential consequences of nature, troop deployment in finland. what might that look like? we can't be sure because russia threatens finland all the time and always has and in fact, does continuously carry out cyber attacks and disinformation attacks on finland. so that country is, is well used to russia trying to meddle in its affairs. at the moment, though, strategist tell me that russian would not have the ability to carry out any sort of military attack on finland. the assets that would have been stationed nearer to the finished border have all been moved to help in the war. in russia's war in ukraine . so right now finland doesn't feel that there is a military threat. could be be a different situation. should the war end in ukraine, which of course everyone hopes will happen. and russia may, you know, move assets back toward the finish border. but by that time, of course, now article 5 is in effect. so quit would been abo

an anchor is still blocking sweden's membership. it says it's not doing enough to rein in what it describes as kurdish terrorists, living in sweden, who it says undermined turkey security. some russia says it will bolster its defenses. in response to finland's, move, nato was established during the cold war long before the collapse of the soviet union in 1991. president vladimir putin has repeatedly accused it of trying to limit russia's sphere of influence. he said nato's gradual expansion in the last 3 decades. despite promises he wouldn't is one of the main reasons why russia invaded ukraine. firstly, with the crimean peninsula in 2014, 8 years before its full scale invasion. that shocked the world. in july, putin said he had no territorial disputes with been limits written and tried to play down their nato bids. but his warning was clear and stop at the v, a c e m thing. and they should clearly understand that they didn't face any threats before this lee. so now if nato troops and infrastructure are deployed, we will be compelle

sweden's inclusion. they consider to be terrorists. sweden promised a crackdown on some of this and there were ongoing negotiations with sweden with them saying that it did enough and turkey same nuts. there was a public burning of the koran which caused outrage across the muslim world but particularly in turkey, which said if this a country that i love the koran to be burned we will or are not interested in it and having it joined the alliance.— not interested in it and having it joined the alliance. there was also some process _ joined the alliance. there was also some process in _ joined the alliance. there was also some process in the _ joined the alliance. there was also some process in the swedish - joined the alliance. there was also l some process in the swedish courts today. how does that play into this? what happened was the police in sweden had so far banned the burning of the koran publicly on public order but the swedish court today ruled this was in breach of sweden's principles of free spe

this is how the medical system of sweden lives today. ukrainian refugees here say they are used to going to the doctor every time they have a cold, but in sweden they are learning a new culture of an active lifestyle and reducing the use of medicines. ukrainian woman larisa and her daughter came to sweden as refugees, the woman says. she very easily found a common language with the swedish medical system even in ukraine. larisa was interested in evidence-based medicine, minimized the use of drugs and implemented an active way of life, i stopped running to the doctors for every sneeze in children or there for every cough in case of illnesses, uh, when they are sick, i give ice cream to children, i temper it more, probably because of that, i am close to the approach that is now in sweden, in sweden , we actually applied, probably, several times eh- when did we receive an invitation from the polyclinic for an examination, the woman says that in sweden, if you get sick, you can not only go directly to the hospital, but also call the hotline

last year finland applied to join nato together with sweden. stressed, finland's membership is not complete without that of sweden. our persistent efforts for a rapid swedish membership will continue. i look forward to seeing sweden join us as the 32nd member at the vilnius summit injuly. i want to thank you, mr secretary—general. you and your people, your health has been very important and you have been backing us in every moment of this procedure. we really give a lot of value to that and to our partners. thank you. applause so there we had statements from both the general secretary of nato, jens stoltenberg, and the finish resident. let's wait for the moment of the raising of the flag. -- the finnish president. kit} of the raising of the flag. -- the finnish president. aco headquarters in belgium, finnish president. aco headquarters m belglum, and— finnish president. aco headquarters in belgium, and act— finnish president. aco headquarters in belgium, and act headquarters- finnish president. aco headquarters in belgium, and act headquarters

for sweden, but for himself, because a certain part of the cords could be drawn to his cube .in. he still respects us, he does not persecute those smokers who shvets no, this is an irreconcilable position, it mobilizes the nuclear electorate, the real problem is that degane has been missing for a long time, so he is now lagging behind the opposition candidate, who has a 10% stake in deregoglu. i will tell you clearly if there are now candidates for the position the president from the opposition was some kind of more charismatic posts there were chosen between mayors of istanbul and anchors, but both of them for various reasons cannot run for office. i think that now i was in berdygan, there was a briting of 20-30% . the maximum and he it is amazing in general a person with such a political i would say with a sense of smell, he does everything possible to bury himself , well, i don’t understand, that’s it, one day i need to write a book about the last years of evdogan, who when he came to power because he was absolutely brilliant in economic reforms and in the way he changed so

but we plan that finland and sweden could join together. they couldn't sweden and finland both applied for membership last year. but no stock home has been left standing on the sidelines. it spade held up by a political tiff after turkey accused. we didn't of offering safe haven to terrorists. hungary to has been holding out on ratification a source of frustration for the swedish foreign minister. we would like to see this happen as soon as possible. there is no reason for neither the turkish parliament over hungarian parliament to make any for further delays. russia use nato as a threat to its security. and once key of bard from ever joining, the alliance insists its door remains open. but there is no clarity on when ukraine may be invited to walk through it. for no nato nations said they'll keep arming t if. as this alliance grows from 30 to 31 pretty significant day for nato. that is why i asked our correspondent, terry shelton, brussels who's been at the headquarters all day long to walk us through the highlights. it definitely was a bi

, and in finland there is a change of government, and so on, and sweden wanted to go to vilnius.s procedure in a week because in finland all the parties represented in the parliament are euro-atlanticists, and the party that will now form the government is the coalition party and the former leader is the current president of finland, it is the linearists and the sau who are linearists or supporters of joining finland to nato was still in 2000 there in the 10th year of 2014, when the social democrats what kind of power are they leaving now? problems i think that the agreement of finland is just a vote in the parliament that will be confirmed by the president here, turkey is not a question of finland if it is also hungary . i think that hungary will be confirmed to be confirmed by turkey, but regarding turkey, i understand that it is possible that the leadership of nato and the united states have the agreement of the president as reprimand that he will do it after the parliamentary elections, but it is before the summit , then you can't, so you have such a possibility because it is

and anchor is still blocking sweden's membership. it says it's not doing enough to rein in what it describes is kurdish terrorists living in sweden, who it says undermined turkey security. i'm russia says it will bolster its defenses. in response to finland's move, nato was established during the cold war long before the collapse of the soviet union in 1990. 1 said that a president vladimir putin has repeatedly accused it of trying to limit russia's sphere of influence. he said nato's gradual expansion in the last 3 decades. despite promises he wouldn't. is one of the main reasons why russia invaded ukraine . firstly, with the crimean peninsula in 2014 a ques before its full scale invasion. that has shocked the world. in july, putin said he had no territorial disputes with been loose written and tried to play down their nato bids. but his warning was clear 1st because it's a she a c, e m thing and they should clearly understand that they didn't face any threats before. this is now if nato troops and infrastructure are deployed, we wi

once more, sweden is preparing for the worst case scenario. unlike neighbor finland, they had suspended the military draft here for several years. now there are proposals to double the number of conscripts. tanks rolled onto the baltic island of god than last year. usually a favorite among swedish vacationers, the ones demilitarize island is now hosting forces once again strategic positions and the baltic sea reach him in sweden and finland. especially interesting for nato, says finish security expert men, ollander exempt. and at that i've overall and finish and sweeter succession means what we call the correlation of forces is changing, and the region on dashed on a dudley's are changing in favor of nato. was that done. and previously russia had something of a free pass to disrupt the nordic and baltic countries at well to apply pressure on them like that would have its own that hope to that sweden has long prided itself on, not officially taking part in any military alliance during the cold war, prime minister, all palmer champion, peace and

so we don't have clarity on exactly when sweden will be joining finland and sweden had hoped to join together and that certainly a message were likely to hear from other members of the lights the day that there is still a hope that when i go in this summer in the summer here in europe, there will be a major nato summit, and that by that time it is hoped by many, including nato secretary general, yet stilton berg that sweden to will be a member of this alliance. but as you mentioned, it points to some disunity as turkey and hungry are, as i mentioned, it's still holding out and still not giving any clarity on when stock, whom will be signing up, rosie. thank you very much. our correspondent rosie birch. out there in brussels for you as present. donald trump is preparing to surrender to prosecutors in new york later today as he faces an unprecedented court appearance. trump is the 1st sitting or former u. s. president of priest criminal prosecution. tuesday we'll see his arraignment on charges linked to alleged hush money payments to adult film actor stormy daniels just before the 2016

and other countries to join the alliance in the future, so sweden is already on the verge of joiningnato and we hope that it will have a member of the fanato and we hope that it will soon become a country is a member and most of the countries on the eastern flank of nato have nato troops on the territory of these countries. will the same happen with finland? no troops of other nato member countries will be present, of course, but we are again talking about the training of both the air force and the navy, which have permanent bases located in specific countries, and therefore negotiations will be held finland, in which this question will be discussed regarding security issues. yes, we understand that the world in which we now live is the result of russia's military and military actions against ukraine, and we are aware of all the cruelty that this war has brought to the european continent and beyond we have seen the sufferings of ukraine , and that is why now more than ever it is important to understand that putin poses a threat not only to ukraine , but in fact to every european stat

we have no institutional claims to agreements with sweden. is supported, but they always want to prove that they can play an independent role in the foreign policy arena and can block entire collective decisions, let's say nato, the european union , but you said that turkey can afford it and hungary can't so much so what is the west that will allow the urban to play this game, well, you see that the west is also finding its possibilities of levers of pressure not only on hungary, well, finland eventually joins us, although at first president oleg did not want to launch you ani finland, ani shvets, and i assure you that sweden will also join, what for to erdoğan, this is what he accepted finland, he did not accept sweden, this is also an element of the pre-election struggle. this is how i defend turkish state interests after the elections. whoever wins them, of course, the parliament of turkey will make this decision, i am absolutely sure of this, because it is not relations with sweden that depend on it. and relations with the united states r

that is something sweden denies and i spoke to sweden's foreign minister here, and he said that he had had a talk with his turkish counterpart and that he had reassured him that there would be new legislation coming in in finland on that and out of topic of counter terrorism, he said that was welcomed by turkeys, foreign minister, or there is a crucial nato summit coming up later in the year of june. so that really could be the moment to watch because that is also the month that this new swedish legislation will kick in. so it could be that before long, terry, there is yet another new flag added to this row of likes behind me with sweden on its way, also joined their lights, if turkey and hungry, which is still blocking agree to ratify that membership it rosie. thank you very much, shar correspond at rosie birch out there in brussels. more on this was cross over to our correspond, jennifer parker, she's in, in reger left the jennifer, finland, joining nato reverses decades of military non alignment. what reactions are you seeing to that? well, terry, of course, rush us reaction to finl

turkey accused sweden of offering safe haven to terrorists. hungary, too, has been holding out on recitation, -- on ratification. >> there's no reason for the turkish parliament or the hungarian parliament to make any form of delays. >> pressure views nato as a threat to its security and wants kyiv hard from ever joining. -- russia views and nato as a threat to its security. for now, nato nations say they will keep arming kyiv as the alliance grows from 30 to 31. >> a pretty significant day for nato. that's why i asked our correspondent in brussels who has been at nato headquarters all day long to walk us through the highlights. >> it definitely was a big day for nato. this was a day that even two years ago we could not have imagined happening. finland was quite content to be nonaligned militarily, believing that this was safest for it. sharing a border with russia and not wanting to invite more russian threats. at the same time, once russia invaded ukraine, all bets were off, and finland's entire perspective on its own security changed. defin

out of he is worried that this growing season will make or break the future for him and his farm. sweden is well known for its position as a politically neutral state, but russia's invasion of ukraine has led to some swedes. questioning this longstanding policy. now the northern europeans are breaking with the status quo and are seeking protection from nato. the defense alliance of european and north american nations. sweden is keen to be admitted into the alliance as soon as possible, due to its close proximity to russia. stockholm has just expelled a several russian diplomats for allegedly threatening states security as relations between the 2 nations sour. well for young soldiers like philip up the war and ukraine has changed everything and military training exercises have taken on a new found urgency and importance. didn't tell you that voluntary about a 100 meters from here who no matter what aim for that area and moved out of the enemy line a somewhere in this forest intelligence has res vilify, and her group could enemy forces are close by we've been given permission to accompany

we need non aligned states, like what sweden used to be. you over the, in the back in the forest, the soldiers prepare for the next skirmish, philippa and her unit catch their breath. joining nato would offer sweden's support from the alliance, but what the soldiers here know is they must offend others and return monday without her that of course we would prefer not to worry about this, but i do, and it weighs on me, because you'll be thought to think though, the health of the summer philippa will have completed her basic training after which she will leave the military. the decision she says was made independently of the war and ukraine. many brides want to stand out on their wedding day, but a look such as this is truly unique in europe. the right to do or a is taking part in a centuries old tradition. she belongs to the muslim minority of the po, max, the ethnic minority have managed to preserve their culture despite the period of oppression during bulgarian communist regime. our reporter attended the wedding and about the areas of south

well as so sweden can be a member of nato in the news. it seems that you have a sort of a deadlock in the stokes right now. well 1st of all, i don't count are working hours in that way, but, but i welcome the fact that them as many allies and the, and the, and the, and the also of people in many capitals have been working hard to, to ensure that they are, are making progress, and also that will deliver on what you all promised in madrid or, or because you have to remember that all i made the decision in june last year in my dad's invite financing. and i, and i saw have told you before, this is the fastest accession process in naples more than history it's, it's still not the year it's in. so as soon as we end up in an applied normal, these processes takes years. and we are all the d as in as a full member. and the 28 allies have ratified as written as a, as a member. and in the meantime, a not or has, has happened through this much closer and much more integrated into natal sivilton and meters archers now than they were before they applie

that well, to apply pressure on them like that was it was own that hooked, that sweden has long prided itself or not officially taking part in any military alliance during the cold war. prime minister, olaf palmer champion, peace and understanding, and shape the image of sweden as a respected moral authority. palmer's former comrades in arms can no longer believe their eyes. a majority in the country now supports nato membership. you're on greater editor in chief of the social democratic newspaper adela democrat, and believes that the application to join was a mistake your to other than it though the world needs states that do not belong to any military blocker. no. because what we're seeing in the west, if you, for this enormous arms build up growth thing, the war there not go on for 50 years, he gave him through. at some point, it must come to an end put at the will, the, when that happens, we need not align states like what sweden used to be. you over the, in the back in the forest, the soldiers prepare for the next skirmish, philippa and her unit catch their breath. joining naida w

in the meantime, sweden is still on the waiting list. isn't that what are their hopes of joining the defense align soon? all of the those answers lie in ankara because while hungary also has not yet ratified sweden's membership, it the problem really lies with the turks and turkish president dresser type air to one has said he does not believe sweden has done enough to join the alliance. even as nato secretary general stilton burge and the other allies point out that sweden has fulfilled the pledges it made in a trilateral agreement made with turkey and finland at the madrid summit last july . so i think everyone thinks that there may be some loosening of the turkish position after the the elections in may. but that's the only hope now because sweden says it's done everything it can to change turkey's mind. now in finland, of course, wanted to join in order to to secure it's border, but they also bring a lot to the table. right. so what, what value does finland bring to nato now that it's a member? there are some very interesting things

sweden, which is still not a member., i think, a member. but it would be different, ithink, if a member. but it would be different, i think, if there were nato troops from other countries stationed for long periods, as we have seen in the baltic states, what are called enhanced battle groups, to defend nato territories, like in estonia and latvia and lithuania as well. so, that is one of the questions thatis so, that is one of the questions that is being asked here, and we probably won't find out immediately. the fact is that finland is already a country that is capable of defending itself. it has a relatively small armed forces, about 30,000, but it can call up nearly 250,000 reserves. it also has modern equipment. it hasjust 250,000 reserves. it also has modern equipment. it has just ordered 250,000 reserves. it also has modern equipment. it hasjust ordered more than 60 f 35 stealth jets, so it is a country that brings notjust a massive border of russia to nato, but also modern armed forces, who are capable and will he

sweden treated it absolutely calmly now the generator says that they hope that sweden will join natorinciple they can know better than us , well, that's what had to be separated for the turnout , it doesn't cause any irritation about the quality of nato itself, you already understand can a strong alliance. and what kind of strong tape is this for turkey? hungary can block the security needs of this , not only sweden, it is necessary and necessary . you are talking about a family, this is not a family, this is an alliance, and there is the same one as turkey , who will get a dream, what will help me, russia , the old empire, who will be interested all the time , nick and yardugan, a person who is looking for his choice from you, who is the number of memories also, the fact that the americans could not simply show their place with their farts , if necessary , speaks for me. pentek is not used to snoring, it's just political culture. you don't know how such people deal with hockey , hotel, sauna , khrushchev , brezhnev. it was necessary there were no options because we have it or not, b
