Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson stated on Friday that if Sweden’s parliament agrees to pursue a NATO membership application, the government would not call a referendum.
Both Sweden and Finland have been forced to reconsider long-held ideas that military neutrality is the best way to ensure national security, with both nations poised to make a decision in the coming weeks.
A referendum, according to Andersson, is a “poor idea.”
