Dont know if your old enough to done military service in Sweden, but as the saying goes, all guns points the east. There is no confusion about why we are rebuilding our defense for in Sweden. We have +3000 KM coast line in Sweden, large part in the Baltics, so we too share a border with Russia.
In any case if you forgot:

My point about the nonchalance in Swedish culture towards Russian aggression however is less about those involved or otherwise supportive of the military – they are all but certain to keep it top of mind – but with the rest who seem to either actively campaign against the military under some naive assumption that "surely not here, we're friends!" or simply don't care. Swedes simply don't have that deep rooted paranoia (for lack of better word – strong worry perhaps) that you'll see in for instance the Baltic states. Quite possibly because while we may have had incidents, there have been no occupation or all out conflict for so long while with the Baltic states, and indeed Finland, it's still fresh in mind.
