    It would be fascinating to know what changed behind the scenes to cause such a change of stance.

      It’s really not a change of stance since talks about this had been going since before Swedens application to NATO. But the terms might be of interest.

        It’s the change to not blocking Sweden joining NATO that stood out to me. They’ve been pretty opposed to it up to now.
