Jussi Galla-Aho, head of the Finnish parliamentary committee for foreign affairs, said that on February 28 the country will vote for joining the North Atlantic Alliance without waiting for acceptance from Turkey and Hungary. It is reported by Rzeczpospolita.

The statement says that the Parliament of Finland decided to vote for the country's accession to NATO, without waiting for Turkey and Hungary to approve its application, so that when all countries ratify Finland's application, all other formalities have already been completed.
