Sweden opens doors to NATO troops ahead of membership decision.
TL;DR Summary
Sweden will allow NATO to temporarily base troops and equipment on its territory to prepare for future joint operations, even before it formally joins the alliance. The move is aimed at sending a clear signal to Russia and strengthening Sweden's defence. Sweden hopes to join NATO by a summit in Lithuania next month, after objections from Turkey and Hungary delayed its bid.
