In a move aimed at bolstering national security, Sweden's military has requested the government to seize a Russian-owned estate located near the Muskö Naval Base in Stockholm archipelago. The military's concern stems from potential threats posed by Russian drones and the ambiguous ownership status of the property. Reports suggest that a businessman with ties to the Russian state has been constructing a luxury residence on Muskö island, although his wife, who holds dual citizenship in Russia and Sweden, is the official owner. This development follows Sweden's decision two years ago to abandon its two-century long military non-alignment and join NATO due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The military has highlighted that the strategic location offers unique advantages for enhancing the defense of Muskö Naval Base, particularly against drone attacks. The evolving landscape of Russian drone warfare has been identified as a significant shift in threats facing Sweden. Public broadcaster SVT described the property as a long-standing annoyance for the armed forces. Defence Minister Pål Jonson emphasized the need to ensure no one can gain an advantageous position or insight into the site. The military's statement, attributed to Chief of the Defense Staff Carl-Johan Edström, underscored that Sweden is currently facing its most serious security situation since the end of World War II. It remains uncertain whether the Russian businessman resides in Sweden, with his wife having owned the property since 2017.
