Abstract

February 24, 2022, has become a turning point for the security situation in Northern Europe. Up until Russia’s attack on Ukraine, cooperation around the greater Baltic Sea Region had been highly successful in a variety of areas such as environmental protection, transportation networks, municipal networks, and innovative economies. All this was dealt a serious blow when Russian forces launched a full-scale attack on Ukraine, supported by Belarus. For all the Nordic countries, it was a moment for drawing conclusions regarding their defence policies, already influenced by the 2014 events: the annexation of Crimea and a de facto protracted conflict in Donbas.
