Yeah, just two - Hungary and Turkey. Hungary has said they're going to vote by mid-December, and Turkey... well it'll depend on when Erdogan decides Sweden has done enough to address his concerns. This article does a pretty good job of summarizing what's going on with the three countries right now: https://www.dailysabah.com/politics/diplomacy/turkish-swedish-top-diplomats-address-implementation-of-nato-deal

Hungary and Turkey and Turkey will postpone Sweden's admission for as long as it can. I was thinking the other day that NATO will become a more blury organization with members in the grey area that not all members are required to help under Article 5 (if Russia attacks Sweden, Turkey can choose to be neutral. If Russia attacks Poland the issue is more clean-cut, but what if over time more countries get added into this "maybe we help, maybe not" category?)..

A mess and all because of Russian allies infiltrating the organization.
