The signing of the protocol of adhesion of Finland and Sweden to NATO by the member countries of the military alliance and the inauguration of economist Daniella Marques, who takes over as the new president of Caixa Econômica Federal, are among the highlights of this Tuesday (5).
NATO countries sign Finland and Sweden entry protocol
The 30 countries of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) signed an accession protocol by Finland and Sweden on Tuesday (5), to allow them to join the nuclear alliance once the allied parliaments ratify the decision.
When confirmed, this will be the most significant expansion of the alliance since the mid-1990s. “With 32 nations around the table, we will be even stronger,” he added.
The protocol means that Helsinki and Stockholm can participate in NATO meetings and have greater access to intelligence, but they will not be protected by the NATO defense clause that an attack on an ally is an attack on all until ratification.
This process will likely take up to a year.
