According to the Swedish Armed Forces, the government has decided that from 1 April this year, the Swedish Armed Forces will take over the leadership of the work in the military committee in Brussels. The decision means, among other things, that the Swedish Armed Forces will be responsible for the tasks within the military committee's work.
Vice Admiral Jonas Haggren is appointed as Sweden's military representative to NATO and will report directly to the Supreme Commander. Jonas Haggren most recently served as the head of the Joint Staff and Headquarters.
The decision also means that Sweden's current military representative to NATO and the EU, Rear Admiral Jens Nykvist, along with three additional special attachés, will transfer to the Swedish Armed Forces.
