Respectful Memo Regarding Outside Help

29 Nov 1961
Description: This memorandum reviews Sweden's policy of neutrality with respect to defense cooperation with the West against the backdrop of the country's strategic position, its stated neutrality, and available options in the country's international relations. The paper speculates on Western assistance in the case of a (Soviet) attack, lists examples of issue-areas for cooperation, outlines international cooperation that is already under way, and proposes concrete measures. The paper points out that no one has a full overview over existing cooperation measures and that there are no guidelines.
