A Special Relationship Unchained -- Taking It to the Next Level: From Cooperation in Faraway Places to Meeting Common Regional Challenges -- The Baltic Sea Region: Finnish and Swedish Interests -- Promoting Security through Engagement and Presence -- US Interests in the Baltic Sea Region and a New Standard for Defense Cooperation |
| Summary |
"In recent years, the ambitious Russian military build-up, coupled with revanchist Russian rhetoric and increasingly aggressive behavior, has made it clear that the security environment in the Baltic Sea region has changed.

Whether developing NATO's Readiness Action Plan, planning for Baltic Air Policing, or supporting forces stationed in Europe, enhanced Finnish and Swedish defense cooperation would provide the United States with new opportunities and help develop standards for smart defense |
