As a Swede I would be very surprised if this article turns out to be true. The current ruling party is anti-NATO and has changed stance from strongly anti-NATO to "we need to re-evaluate our position on NATO". Does this mean we will join NATO? I think so, but it is far from as clear cut as this article makes it seem.
- formerly_proven 5y agoSomeone seemed to have played a game of telephone where "Finland and Sweden could join NATO by summer if they start now and do it as quickly as possible" got turned into "Finland and Sweden want to join NATO by summer". Or perhaps "Finland and Sweden want to decide by summer" got turned into "... join by summer".
- dragonwriter 5y agoNATO has been pretty clear that should Finland and/or Sweden decide to join, they are in a state where there would be basically zero on-ramp needed.
