Finland And Sweden Formally Submit Application To Join NATO

It was an historic moment on Wednesday as Finland and Sweden submitted letters formally expressing interest in joining NATO

The two countries that had before now held fast to military nonalignment until Russia’s invasion of Ukraine upended their thinking about security.

The delivery of the letters to the alliance’s Brussels headquarters marks the start of an accession process that could take months, but that is ultimately expected to result in an expansion of NATO from 30 to 32 members, remaking Europe’s post-Cold War security architecture along the way.
