LIVE: Flag-Raising Ceremony of Sweden at NATO Headquarters, Brussels | Sweden Joins NATO | CNBC TV18 Sweden officially joined the bloc on Thursday, a little over two years following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and close to a year since Finland’s accession. Joining NATO gives Sweden, among other benefits, the alliance’s Article 5 collective security guarantee. “On Monday, 11 March 2024, a flag-raising ceremony to mark the accession of the Kingdom of Sweden to NATO will take place at NATO Headquarters in Brussels,“ the announcement said. During the ceremony, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson will address the press. #NATO #Sweden #Brussel #NATOHeadquarters #LiveNews #cnbctv18 n18oc_world
