Turkey has wanted to be a member of the EU for some time. Tricky, Turkey in the EU for Finland & Sweden in NATO... Not sure about that. There are various concerns about things like human rights, Cyprus, adjacency to Iran, Iraq, Syria.
Turkey’s control of Black Sea access from the Med is too strategic for NATO to lose them. Their loss of the F-35 might be something they want to reverse.
