Sweden is considering reinforcing Gotland, a strategic island in the Baltic Sea, after joining NATO.
AdvertisementSweden is open to re-fortifying a crucial island in the Baltic Sea now that it's joined NATO, its prime minister said.
"That goes in terms of presence on Gotland, but also in terms of surveillance, in terms of submarine capabilities."
Gotland marked with an arrow in the Baltic Sea.
Gotland is considered to hold a key strategic position in the Baltic Sea, and is often referred to as an "unsinkable aircraft carrier."
