Golob: Sweden's accession to NATO signals change in its doctrine

Vilnius, 11 July - Sweden's accession to NATO shows that the alliance has changed its doctrine, Prime Minister Robert Golob said as he arrived for a NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, on Tuesday. This doctrine is about deterrence and defence, and Slovenia's membership of NATO should be seen in this light, he stressed.
