Billström: Russian confrontation needs to be met

Today, today presents an extra foreign declaration for the Riksdag as a result of Sweden becoming a NATO member on March 7. This is reported by TT.

In a foreign declaration, the government states that Russia has greatly and over a long period of time deteriorated the security policy situation.

- Russia has chosen a confrontational approach to the EU and NATO. That confrontation needs to be met, says Foreign Minister Tobias Billström.

According to the government, NATO membership raises the threshold for an armed conflict in our immediate area. Billström expresses that NATO is a defensive alliance and that Sweden's solidarity alliance policy is stabilizing.

The declaration states that "Sweden must work for international law, be a strong voice for arms control and disarmament and work to reduce the risk of nuclear weapons being used".
