(LifeSiteNews) — Sweden began distributing pamphlets to its citizens on Monday, warning them to prepare for “crisis or war” as the Russia-Ukraine conflict escalates significantly.
“If Crisis or War Comes” is the title of the booklet recently issued by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), an updated version of a pamphlet that has been updated by Sweden five times since World War II, and most recently in 2018, according to The Economic Times.
Sweden officially joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) on March 7, 2024, a coalition of countries including the U.S. and much of Western Europe that is founded on the principle of collective defense, meaning if one NATO member is attacked, they are all considered attacked.
Sweden has already supplied aid, including tank donations, to Ukraine to support the country in its war with Russia.
The Kremlin warned on Monday that U.S. President Joe Biden’s decision to authorize Ukraine’s use of U.S.-supplied longer-range missiles adds “fuel to the fire” in its war.
