There was a post from a mass media site the other day saying Turkey was approving Sweden to join NATO. This turned out to be a bit of wishful thinking.

As a citizen from Turkey, sorry about that. We tried to vote him out, just didn’t take.
As another Swedish citizen, I’m also sorry. The stuff he’s done to your economy is soul crushing, and that’s barely scraping the top of it. I’m really glad my friend moved away from there, but I feel for everyone who can’t.
I hope things get better over there eventually.
Thanks <3 Yeah I was following the election, crazy close to getting him out. No idea how people wanted him still in power after the earthquake disasters. Feels like he used the anger towards Sweden (after the danish guy burned the Quran) to gain some votes by refusing us. What a mess it has become.
Did they not know that Quran burning was propaganda? It happened, but it happened specifically to split Sweden from Turkey. I think it was discovered the person was working for Russia.
Most folk in Turkey can’t consume media from outside sources as they (genuinely) lack the language skills. Turkish media is either just tabloids or state owned propoganda.
Why would Turkish media tell them? They are controlled by Erdogan (where public tv reports about the election didn’t even mention his opponent by name… he was just “that other guy”).
Well not sure about that, the Danish guy that did it have been doing similar things for a while. So while maybe it was somehow encouraged I’m sure he could have gotten the brilliant idea himself. What a genius display of free speech it was…
