     Sweden may entirely leave the "Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons" as yet another devastating blow to the populace's security, because NATO considers being a member of that treaty as a negative, says the new PM of Sweden,
     even stating that the govt is open to placement of nukes and permanent NATO-bases in Sweden, which also the government of Finland has said it is open to subjecting the populace of Finland to, according to several major news-media in both countries.

     Nukes-placement would of course make both countries first-strike targets in case of nuclear weapons conflict, instead of "just" mandatory invasion targets through NATO-membership if the NATO military bloc gets into a war.
     There is also no actual militarily strategic reason to station nukes in either country, as such are already planned for launch using ICBMs, submarines and very long range bomber planes.
