The Swedes have returned to Gotland Island:
With Russia’s foreign policy growing more assertive over the past decade under President Vladimir Putin, the Swedes are bulking up defenses on Gotland. Its army expects that in the opening moments of a Russian invasion, airborne soldiers from the 76th Guards, based across the Baltic Sea, would likely parachute onto Gotland. Both sides know that whoever controls the island controls naval traffic through the southern Baltic.
Sweden is not immune to the Russian hostility that has been NATO's best recruiting tool.
And rearming with a particular eye on Gotland is a good way to earn membership in NATO.
