NATO officially signed

Representatives of about 30 member states in NATO signed a promise of the Treaty of Finland and Sweden, which officially launched the NATO expansion process that has brought new challenges to Europe's security.

The representative of NATO member states held a signing ceremony on the NATO headquarters in Brussels that day. Finnish Foreign Minister Harvento and Sweden Foreign Minister Linde attended the signing ceremony and then attended a press conference with NATO Secretary -General Stoltenberg.

Finland and Sweden originally pursued the policies of military non -alliance, but officially applied to join NATO in May this year. According to the regulations, NATO must absorb new members under the premise of "unanimous consent" in 30 member states.

On June 28, Turkey signed a memorandum with Fenrui, confirming that the two countries were agreed to join NATO to remove obstacles for Fenrui to enter the contract. At the same time, Fenry will not support the Kurdish Workers' Party, the Syrian Kurdish forces "People's Protection Force" and "Julun Movement", and agree to lift the restrictions on exporting national defense equipment to Turkey.

At the NATO summit held on June 29 and 30 on June 29 and 30, Finland and Sweden were officially invited to join NATO. According to the regulations, after the 30 member states in NATO signed the Fentry to join the contract, the next step is to approve this agreement by all member states parliament.

NATO expanded five times after the Cold War, not only did not make Europe more secure, but also buried the seeds of conflict. Gruhko, deputy minister of Russia, said a few days ago that if Finland and Sweden joined NATO, Russia will take appropriate measures to ensure safety.
