A new crisis is coming on the Turkey-Sweden line: officially gave a date for the provocation

After Russia’s attack on Ukraine, the tension between Sweden and Turkey, which applied to join NATO along with Finland, does not end…

Talks between the two countries continue after Turkey announced that it was not in favor of Sweden’s membership in NATO on the grounds that it was not cooperating enough on terrorism. However, an anti-Ankara protest held in Stockholm, the Swedish capital, in recent weeks had heightened the tension.

It was announced that Paludan, who had previously received a huge reaction by burning the Quran, will continue his provocation at the Swedish Embassy in Turkey.

In Stockholm, a group of supporters of a terrorist organization carried out an action with a model resembling President Erdoğan. The fact that the Swedish authorities did not take action regarding this incident provoked the reaction of Ankara.

THIS SATURDAY WILL CAUSE

After this incident, although relations had not yet calmed down, a new warning came from the racist politician Rasmus Paludan. Paludan, a well-known anti-Islamic politician who had previously been criticized for burning the Koran, announced his new plan to the public.

Paludan, the leader of the far-right party Stram Kurs, announced that he will burn the Koran in front of the Turkish embassy in Stockholm on January 21, 2023. Faced with the provocation that will take place this Saturday, he said that it is about “freedom of expression” .

THE PROVOCATION CARRIED OUT WITH ERDOĞAN’S MODEL HAS REACTED

Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson and Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Billström reacted to the incident, stating that this incident was done to sabotage Sweden’s NATO membership process.

Although Ankara reacted strongly to the incident, it demanded that those responsible be brought to justice. Although a note was delivered to the Swedish ambassador to Turkey, the visit of the speaker of the Swedish parliament, Andreas Norlen, to Turkey was postponed.

District attorney Lucas Eriksson, speaking to Swedish media, said: “I took this case as a libel case, but I don’t think it’s insulting enough. Therefore, I decided not to launch a preliminary investigation.” “A review can be requested and then another prosecutor can review this case,” Eriksson said.
