He stressed that Turkey cannot reward those who "do not comply with the agreements."

After fulfilling the obligations taken by Stockholm, Ankara will be ready to discuss the issue, he added.

At the end of January, Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Billström said that Sweden had interrupted the process of joining NATO due to actions with the desecration of the Koran and expressed hope that agreements on NATO expansion with Ankara could be reached at the summit of the foreign ministries of the alliance countries in Vilnius in July.

On February 1, Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that Turkey is not currently looking favorably on Sweden's application for NATO membership.
