Turkey is just doing Russia a solid. All the rest is just window dressing. Sowing discord between NATO allies is basic Russian playbook and Erdogan is on good terms with Putin. Denying Sweden entry into NATO is good news for Russia and Erdogan can use it to look strong in his own country. Simple quid pro quo disguised as a dispute. Just look how quickly turkey switched from "Kurdish terrorist harboring" to "holy book burning". When that narrative has run its course they'll think of something else. Because the end goal is not to get what Erdogan wants, the goal is to deny Sweden what they want. That will be the only constant in this story.
