Quotes

The five Nordic countries do not intend to weaken their Nordic Defence Cooperation.

"The work faces obvious security challenges and the international system is regularly put to the test. Therefore, we strengthen the Nordic defence cooperation in order to contribute to allied security in this phase in time," Gram underlined.

"The Nordic countries are prepared and able to conduct combined joint military operations to manage both present and future challenges together and with allies of the Atlantic Treaty Organization," the document reads.

Eight priority areas are also outlined, among them: smooth military mobility across the countries’ borders.

The countries will also strengthen a joint defence industrial base, and also build joint resilience for crisis situations.
