Sweden becomes NATOs 32nd member state, ending two centuries of military non-alignment.
On March 7th, Sweden officially joined NATO.
Sweden ended two centuries of military non-alignment policy following the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The conflict prompted Sweden to reverse its historical stance on military alliances.
Hungary, initially the sole opponent, eventually approved Swedish membership after negotiations.
