Glad to hear that.
(Bloomberg) -- Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is preparing his lawmakers to ratify Sweden’s accession to NATO after Turkey’s parliamentary approval effectively left Budapest as the lone holdout to the military alliance’s enlargement.

Under pressure to act after leaving the ratification protocol languishing in the Hungarian parliament for more than a year, Orban told North Atlantic Treaty Organization Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg on Wednesday that he’ll urge its approval “at the first possible opportunity,” according to a post on the social media site X. Stoltenberg, for his part, said he was heartened by Orban’s apparent commitment.
I wonder what the catch is. There's always a catch, isn't there?
