Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) does not want to comment on the information that the US war plans leaked in a chat to an American journalist.
– I do not intend to comment on an individual such leak, it will certainly be rooted a lot on that issue, but I do not intend to have a Swedish view of that matter, says Kristersson.
It was when the magazine The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg was added to a chat group that he could take part in how, among other things, US Defense Minister Pete Hegseth presented the plans for a Yemen attack: targets, weapons and arrangements.
When asked if Sweden is affected by the leak and can continue to share intelligence information with the United States in the same way as before, Kristersson answers:
– Right now we have a stronger collaboration with the whole of NATO than just the United States. It is clear that it is better for Sweden in this situation to cooperate with 31 other NATO countries than to have one -sided intelligence cooperation with the US, without in any way rejecting the cooperation that has been good for Sweden for a long time.
– I look more like it is underlining a measure of uncertainty right now, he says.
