Turkey has indefinitely cancelled a trilateral mechanism meeting with Sweden and Finland scheduled for February, following a weekend protest in Stockholm that angered Ankara, state broadcaster TRT reported.

The meeting, which was supposed to take place in Brussels in February, was postponed at Ankara's request, TRT reported, citing Turkish diplomatic sources.

On the eve, President Tayyip Erdogan said Sweden should not be expected to support Turkey's membership in NATO after a protest outside the Turkish Embassy in Stockholm over the weekend that included the burning of a copy of the Koran.
