Abstract:
Summary of the Swedish Points of Views
Some final keywords from the Swedish point of view:
• Foreign policy is a nice thing to have and Sweden always wants to convince the others of the "Swedish model” in different questions.
• Security policy is not bad either, almost like U.N. or something like that.
• Common defence policy with mutual defence guarantees is bad and dangerous.
• Peacekeeping and peacemaking of all types is good.
• Humanitarian aid and civil protection is very good.
• Conflict prevention is the best approach of all - and most probably a Swedish invention!
So the Swedish motto perhaps could be described as: From a European Security Community to a Secure European Community.
