In the autumn to submit to the government for a defence policy inriktningsproposition for 2021-2025, to the parliament for consideration. In the face of the need for a fundamental debate on the direction of the whole of the armed forces, that is to say, in both the military and civil defence forces.
“ Civil defense involves all of society’s resilience to a threat of war, and the war. It is a business that needs to run even when the community is hard-pressed. People need to have access to the most basic – food, water, electricity, transportation, and child care.
as the civil defence forces protected the population through emergency shelters, evacuation, and warning system. The civil defense is also a crucial factor for the military to be able to solve the task. The armed forces are in today, with its ultra-slim organization, dependent on support from the rest of society, in areas such as health care, transportation, and food.
the Steps to enhance the defence forces needs to be balanced so as to be in the military and civil defense can be developed in parallel as they are mutually reinforcing. If the war is won, will the community be able to strike back with full force and effect.
But we are focusing on “ civil defense, helping to make it more difficult, and thus a deterrent to a potential attacker, as it is the intention of the armed forces.
in response to the Russian annexation of the Crimea, and the attacks in the east of Ukraine, in 2014, was resumed in the planning of the defence forces in Sweden. The government gave the Swedish civil contingencies Agency (MSB), the Swedish armed Forces the task of drawing up a common view, a common vision of how the defence forces should be put in place. The work has since moved from the planning to the development of new skills, along with more than 50 government agencies. Also, the municipalities and the regions have already begun the planning for the armed forces. In 2020, the implementation of a totalförsvarsövning, which will provide important experience for the future structure of the defence forces.
”the Resistance,” from the december, 2017, which deals with civil defence. The final report in may of 2019, ”Värnkraft”, military-defence, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the first interim report, as a whole, so that we can understand what the defence forces are supposed to deliver.
As part of the work of the defence inriktningspropositionen, the government in the last year of the 20 authorities selected to develop the basis for the continuation of the direction of the civil defence. The terms of reference to assess their needs and proposals for action, as the defense, the MSB and the Swedish armed Forces has been reported.
In the same context it is also a PROGRAM in one sheet. In the letter, ”So, we are creating the resistance. , we set out the position of the elements of the defence forces, as the MSB has the responsibility for both of the areas that the government has a responsibility, too. The letter covers a number of important strategic actions that need to be made during the period 2021-2025, and the estimated cost. The organization and management of national defence, psychological defence, cyber security and secure communications, staff support, civil defence, civil protection, security of supply, defence forces of land use planning, research and development, as well as international cooperation in relation to civil defence.

in addition there is substantial investment demand, which is still under investigation. There is so key elements that the security of supply, the activation of the civilplikt, secure, transport, and civil defence.
the PROGRAM’s letter must be read in conjunction with the use of materials common to the accounts of the county councils and the municipalities ‚ needs and the provision that of the 20 other agencies, leaving the government in the course of this week. Taken together, these documents are the parliament and the government with a broad basis for the future direction of defence policy 2021-2025.
the sum of The estimated costs will substantially exceed the estimate of eur 4.2 billion, which the defense did in the mid-term report ”Resilience” in december 2017 at the latest.
and , in particular, a large part of the civil defence are under review. At the same time, is not under investigation at that time to prevent the government and parliament to set the focus to highlight the priorities and to set a level of ambition for civilian defense for the next five years.
investing in the field at the same time, strengthen the readiness for a peace-time crises, such as fires, floods, and pandemics, to become a further argument in favour of increasing the pace of the work, given the vulnerabilities that are found.
if you want to affect, and damage to English interests, searching constantly for our weaknesses. A clear signal of the policy stance would also help to build resistance to the activity which is damaging to English interests, is already in the here and now, such as cyber-attacks, informationspåverkan and misinformation. It is that we invest in civil defense, helping to make it more difficult, and thus a deterrent to a potential attacker, as it is the intention of the armed forces.
bets on the field at the same time, strengthen the readiness for a peace-time crises, such as fires, floods, and pandemics, to become a further argument in favour of increasing the pace of the work, given the vulnerabilities that are found.
There is widespread public support for initiatives that will increase our defense capabilities. I think a lot of people will see the wisdom of making a coordination of efforts that increase society’s resilience in daily life and as a result the armed Forces will have the support of the community, when and where it is needed.
furthermore, Many are willing to help, for example, by taking part in non-governmental organisations, or to raise their own hemberedskapen. It is the desire of the mirrors that everyone has a job, everyone is needed, and that we all have a responsibility to strengthen society’s resilience.
