Re:Swedish PM rejects opposition calls to consider joining NATO on Tuesday March 08, 2022 @01:34PM (#30603870)

Misleading exactly in the way I said: the wording used is “help”, not defend, and nothing is formalised. Ukraine is getting “help” as well, but it is not exactly NATO article 5 protection.

Re:Swedish PM rejects opposition calls to consider joining NATO on Tuesday March 08, 2022 @12:36PM (#30602829)

This is misleading. I believe the wording was "help"/"assist", not "defend" and I do not believe anything has been formalised?
