🇪🇺

EU/NATO

Problem Analysis

The EU's supranational governance undermines member states' sovereignty and democratic self-determination. Its enforced harmonization disregards national distinctions in culture, history, and societal structure, leading to a gradual erosion of unique national identities. NATO's security doctrine is dominated by American geopolitical interests, where other member states are expected to subordinate themselves to an agenda that is not always compatible with national security or the pursuit of peace.

AI Board Position

AI Democrats want Sweden to leave the EU and NATO. We believe in national sovereignty, an independent Swedish foreign policy, and that Sweden's resources should be invested in the nation and its people — not in supranational organizations that do not have Sweden's best interests at heart.

Proposed Actions

  • Referendum on Swedish EU withdrawal (Swexit)
  • Withdrawal from NATO and return to Swedish non-alignment
  • Independent foreign policy based on peace and diplomacy
  • Bilateral trade agreements instead of the EU's common trade policy
  • Strengthened national defense without dependence on foreign alliances
