Sweden Will Live Up to Terms of NATO Deal with Turkey: PM Andersson - Tasnim News Agency

Stockholm will live up to the conditions of a memorandum of understanding agreed with Ankara to overcome Turkey's objections to Sweden's NATO membership, Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson said on Tuesday.

She also told a news conference that the decision made last week to extradite a man to Turkey was made "according to Swedish and international law, and we will continue to work that way", the Daily Sabah reported.

Sweden has agreed to extradite a man wanted by Turkey for fraud but has yet to respond to Ankara's requests for terrorist extraditions.

Stockholm conveyed to the Turkish Justice Ministry last week that it had accepted its extradition request for Okan Kale, who was convicted on fraud charges, according to Turkish Justice Ministry sources who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Swedish Justice Minister Morgan Johansson described the decision as a "routine matter," the country's state-run broadcaster SVT reported.
