Four countries now draw up the statement of cooperation for the purchase of military vehicles, said Kristersson at the Joint Media Conference with Lithuanian colleague Gintautas Paluckas.
Countries in the Nordic and Baltic region, five bordering with Russia, abruptly increase investment in defense due to Russian invasion of Ukraine and the U.S. European members to take greater responsibility for their own safety.
“We have not yet made all decisions,” Kristersson said, but also emphasized that as faster decisions were made, it will be realized before procurement.
“We talk about at least a few hundred vehicles and are quite expensive,” he added.
The CV90 produces the Swedish branch of the British Bae Systems, the largest defense firm in Europe.
