Hungary's vote on Sweden's NATO entry delayed
A vote in Hungary's parliament to approve Sweden's entry into NATO was delayed on Monday due to the absence of ruling party lawmakers.
The session was scheduled to take place on Monday morning, but was adjourned after members of the ruling Fidesz party, who hold a two-thirds majority in parliament, did not attend.
Opposition lawmakers voiced criticism towards the ruling party members for their absence, saying that it was a sign of disrespect for the parliament and for the Swedish government.
The vote on Sweden's NATO entry has been delayed several times in recent months, with the ruling party citing a number of reasons for the delays.
It is unclear when the vote will be rescheduled. (ILKHA)
