Quote in Swedish, from the party’s programme
Vänsterpartiet on EUArguments
Common arguments on each side, written without party attribution.
For
- A European army can provide operational capacity that NATO planning does not fully cover.
- Pooled forces can be more cost-effective than parallel national capabilities at smaller scale.
- A common force gives Europe credible options if US security commitments shift in future.
Against
- A joint army duplicates NATO at significant cost and risks competing with rather than complementing it.
- Command of military force is among the most fundamental sovereign powers and unsuited to EU pooling.
- Strengthening national capabilities and NATO interoperability may achieve more than building new structures.
More on EU & foreign policy
- Sweden should join the Euro within the next five years.
- Sweden should support a stronger common EU foreign and defence policy.
- Foreign aid budget should rise back to 1% of gross national income.
- Sweden should support EU enlargement to include Ukraine.
- Sweden should rule out participating in any future EU joint debt.
- Sweden should formally recognise Palestine as a state.
