The United States and Sweden have signed a Defense Cooperation Agreement, allowing the U.S. access to all of the military bases across Sweden. This move comes as Sweden strengthens military alliances while waiting for approval to join NATO. Meanwhile, Russia has been arresting migrants attempting to cross the border into Finland and pressuring them to join the Russian military under threat of deportation. Russian lawmakers have also drafted legislation to allow men called up for military duty to serve in the FSB, the successor agency to the KGB. Finland is preparing to open the border with Russia in 2024, and with Finland and Sweden having joined NATO, coordination of the Nordic-Baltic regionโs defense against Russia will commence.
