Quran burning a conspiracy to keep Sweden out of NATO? U.S. claims 'sabotage'
Published on Jan 24, 2023 07:13 pm IST
The United States has termed the "repugnant" burning of the Quran as a possible "sabotage against unity in NATO" after Turkey denounced Sweden’s membership bid. The Joe Biden administration claims it is a "deliberate attempt to put distance between two close partners of Washington, Turkey and Sweden." Stockholm's NATO accession attempt was badly hit by Quran burning, as Turkey considers it a "vile provocation" and has even nixed a key meeting. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has told Sweden not to expect NATO bid support from Ankara any more. Watch this report for more.
