Keep Putin worried about all his borders, not so secure of ramping up his efforts in Ukraine. He seems to have tried to secure his Chinese border with recent big oil deals, perhaps successfully.

Somehow, I think Putin doesn’t fear an invasion by... Sweden.

A military meant as a deterrent to those violating its neutrality in Olof Palme’s time like Soviet submarines around 1980.

I can’t believe that this is intentional on the part of Obama, but his total disregard of world’s events seem to be waking up other countries into pulling more of their defense load, which in the long run is not a bad thing.
Watch for Obama to tale credit for this and claim that that was his plan all along.

Until 2010 they had universal military service. Now it’s all volunteer.
