In Sweden's Foreign Ministry called the Russian Ambassador because of military threats

The reason for the scandal was a diplomat's statement, in which he called Sweden "a potential goal for a Russian blow. " The official Stockholm considers such a statement inadmissible. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Sweden summoned Viktor Tatarintsev, an ambassador of Russia to Stockholm, to protest about attempting to interfere with the country's application for NATO. This was reported on March 29 by Reuters.

Sweden's Foreign Minister Tobias Bias Balastrr called the Russian representative's statement with an obvious attempt to interfere with the Scandinavian country. The Russian ambassador in a statement on the website of the Embassy reported that Sweden's accession to NATO would make Northern Europe a legitimate target for Russian measures in response, including a military nature. He did not name the specific actions that Moscow prepares in this case.

Stockholm was indignant with respect to the statements of the Russian representative. Tobias Bias Bias called inadmissible. Sweden and Finland in 2022 shortly after Russia's invasion of Ukraine stated that they intended to join NATO. They hope to complete the process this year. We will remind, in November 2022 the Secretary General of the North Atlantic Alliance Jens Stoltenberg noted that Sweden and Finland fulfilled the conditions for joining the Alliance.

According to him, all the necessary steps to participate in the Alliance of the country have successfully passed. On March 28, it became known that Finland and Sweden planned a joint re -equipment for the next 30 years. States intend to move together to new shooting weapons by 2053. The army of both countries concluded a framework agreement with the Finnish manufacturer of small arms Sako Ltd, which is located in Rygimayak.
