Turkey is now resuming talks with Sweden and Finland over their NATO membership bids - after it repeatedly objected to Sweden's application.

The two countries need approval from Turkey to join NATO. An approval from Hungary is also still outstanding. Finland’s parliament has voted overwhelmingly in favor of joining NATO. Finland says it is prepared to move forward alone - although it says it would prefer to join the alliance together with Sweden.

DW's Alexandra von Nahmen has been following the talks in Brussels.
