High-stakes talks come on eve of summit at which war in Ukraine will dominate the agenda
The leaders of Sweden and Turkey are set to meet in a last-ditch attempt to bridge a diplomatic impasse over Stockholm’s stalled Nato membership drive, which has been held up by Ankara.
Monday’s high-stakes talks between the Swedish prime minister, Ulf Kristersson, and Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, will take place on the eve of an alliance summit in the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius at which Nato is keen to demonstrate unity in the face of Russia’s war on Ukraine.
