    tl;dr:

    Speaking alongside French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna at a news conference in Paris, Billstrom said Sweden has fulfilled the last part of its commitment under a June 2022 trilateral memorandum signed in Madrid to address Turkiye’s security concerns on terrorism with a new anti-terror law, which came into effect on 1 June. Although Turkiye approved Finland’s membership, it is waiting for Sweden to fulfill commitments under the deal. It is hoped that Turkiye will approve Sweden’s bid ahead of a NATO summit next month. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made it clear that if Turkiye is expected to respond to Stockholm’s expectations of accession to NATO, Sweden must also do its part to stop PKK activities on its soil ahead of the summit.
