Sweden officially becomes NATO member, ending 200 years of military non-alignment

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.
