The Government has decided today that Sweden will apply for NATO membership.
Government Offices of Sweden - Prime Minister's Office
16 May 2022
This decision is based on a security analysis that the Government invited the other Riksdag parties to take part in and its conclusions that were presented in a report on 13 May.
The Government's assessment is that NATO membership is the best way to protect Sweden's security in light of the fundamentally changed security environment following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Sweden's security policy choices today were also the subject of a special debate in the Riksdag.
