Sweden joins Nato after decades of neutrality

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The country becomes the 32nd member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation after two years of negotiation. We look into the consequences this can have. As award season continues in Hollywood, we hear about the impact last year's strikes had on the industry. And we explore why a growing number of Americans are choosing to switch to local community banks. (Picture: Ceremony Formalizing Sweden Joining NATO in Washington DC, USA.
