(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, 03 AUG - The American Senate has ratified the accession of Sweden and Finland to NATO.
This is the most significant enlargement of the Atlantic alliance since the 1990s. The approval of the American Senate was overturned after both Republicans and Democrats had expressed their support for the entry of the two countries.
Sweden and Finland have decided to apply for membership after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
