 In 2026 - Proliferation of Ballistic Missiles

Topic: 2026 – Proliferation of Ballistic Missiles
Country: Sweden
Delegate Name: Xavier Sapotichne

Sweden has been non-proliferation for a very long time. We support NATO’s defence strategy and strive to protect our citizens from threats. We subscribe to the Hague Code of Conduct and are an active member of the Missile Technology Control Regime.

Greetings, esteemed delegates and honorable chair. Regarding the proliferation of ballistic missiles, Sweden supports non-proliferation. However, Sweden is aware of NATO’s defence strategy and accepts nuclear weapons as essential to the security strategy put in place. Sweden is prepared to take steps to protect its citizens and considers the serious security situation we face as of utmost importance. Sweden will contribute to NATO’s collective deterrence and defence by upgrading its defence system. We look only to protect our whole society with the recent upgrade of our defense system and acknowledge that a stronger defense system is becoming more and more essential every day, with the example of the attacks on Ukraine.

Sweden gains international security and regional stability from the peace that will come from the non-proliferation of ballistic missiles.
