Sweden officially becomes a member of NATO
The flag of NATO and that of Sweden

Sweden formally joined NATO in Washington on Thursday, two years after Russia's invasion of Ukraine prompted it to rethink its national security policy and conclude that support for the alliance was the best guarantee of security for the Scandinavian nation. .

Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson submitted the final paperwork to the US government on Thursday, the latest step in a lengthy process to secure the support of all members to join the military alliance.

"Good things come to those who wait," said US Secretary of State Antony Blinken as he received Sweden's acceptance papers from Kristersson.

"This is a historic moment for Sweden, for our alliance and for the transatlantic relationship," said Blinken.

For NATO, the membership of Sweden and Finland, which shares a 1,340 km border with Russia, are the most important memberships of recent decades. It is also a blow to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has sought to prevent any further strengthening and expansion of the alliance.

"It's official, Sweden is now the 32nd member of NATO, taking its rightful place at our table. Sweden's admission makes NATO stronger, Sweden safer and the entire Alliance safer. I look forward to raising their flag at NATO headquarters on Monday," commented NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg.
