President Biden says the United States will work with Finland and Sweden in event of any outside “aggression” which could threaten national security while their Nato membership is under review.<\/p>\n

The US president reiterated his support for Sweden and Finland’s bid to join Nato, saying it would “further strengthen our defence cooperation” and benefit the entire alliance.<\/p>\n

The US is the latest country to offer support to the two countries in the event of any aggression, with several others offering similar assurances.<\/p>\n

Last week the UK agreed a mutual security pact with both Nordic nations, ahead of their decision to apply for Nato membership – a decision which has been taken in the light of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n
