Sweden officially joins NATO
Sweden became NATO’s newest member on Thursday (7 March 2024), upon depositing its instrument of accession to the North Atlantic Treaty with the Government of the United States in Washington DC. With Sweden’s accession, NATO now counts 32 countries among its members.
Welcome, Sweden!
I thought my signature was bad
I like how it's a defined x-y curve. Could be more differentiable, though.
Putin gonna be like "noooooo you're encroaching on my territory noooo I have no choice but to invade more neighbors noooooo"
at this rate he's gonna run out of neighbors that arent part of NATO or allied to china before too long

China doesn't do alliances.

Russia can't even defend its existing bordersI don't expect they're going to be eager to repeat this exercise for a long time, even if they do manage to grab part of Ukraine. If they don't, it's more a question of even surviving as a regime.
If they do manage to grab a part of Ukraine that won't be the end. They'll be fighting a western backed resistance movement. The USA and allies sank over two million million dollars and twenty years trying to hold Afghanistan after and failed. If Russia 'wins' in Ukraine they'll be in for a far rougher time.
More like YAY-TO 😁
Gripens when?
I'm envisioning fully militarized IKEAs everywhere, Swedish fish in military green, the Swedish Chef in a NATO uniform, the Swedish Bikini Team in uh... just the Swedish Bikini Team, SAAB and Volvo branded tanks...
What does that now mean concerning Russia’s War of Aggression?
Is surströmming considered a chemical weapon?

It is banned internationally, but Sweden did not sign up.
