^ When I did my military in 87-88 the Swedes used 3.5-4 % of their BNP on the military-In 2000 they used around 1.3-1.5 % of their BNP on the military-It was first many years later, from around 2015/16 the government understod that Putin was a threat
Last year it was 1.45 %.
Here is what it says
"Sweden is proposing to scale up its spending on defense and security preparedness to $12 billion in 2028. Sweden allocated $7.3 billion to that budget line in 2022, equivalent to around 1.45 per cent of GDP, the highest level since 2005."
