Sweden's threat.
von Freeranger am 19.06.2015 01:31Friggin' Vlad. Now he's threatening Sweden not to join NATO. He's predicting dire consequences if they do.
According to the article;
Putin pointed out that there will be consequences, that Russia will have to resort to a response of the military kind and reorientate our troops and missiles," the ambassador said. "The country that joins NATO needs to be aware of the risks it is exposing itself to."
Currently, Sweden does not have any plans to join NATO. The country has stayed out of competing alliances between the West and Russia since World War II. However, public support for NATO membership is quickly rising.
Sweden was embarrassed in an incident earlier this year in which they learned they had a sub lurking within their coastal waters, but due to a lack of technology, they could not find it. The Swedish military has subsequently asked for 700 million to hunt subs after the failed chase.
