Holy smokes, Erdogan has just agreed to send Sweden's NATO accession protocol for joining NATO to the Turkish Parliament as swiftly as possible with the intention to have it approved.

There was a lot of speculation that Erdogan was using a hard approach against Sweden to get support from hardliners, but that he would change gears after the election. It looks like it came to fruition.

This also comes off the heels of Erdogan sending 5 Ukrainian Azov officers back to Ukraine this weekend, which really pissed Russia off. They were part of a prisoner exchange Turkey negotiated, but the agreement was that the officers would have to stay in exile in Turkey until after the way.
