NATO chief visits Finland as it pushes to join alliance I DW News

Finland's parliament is holding a final debate on a bill aimed at speeding up the country's application for NATO membership. The debate coincides with a visit to Helsinki from NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

Speaking alongside Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin, he said now is the time to allow both Finland and Sweden to join the alliance. Two NATO members, Turkey and Hungary, are still standing in the way of these memberships. As DW's Teri Schultz reports, Turkey's opposition is causing the most concern.
