Stockpile nappies, medication, baby food: NATO members Sweden and Finland advise citizens on how to survive war
1,000 days have already passed since Russia invaded Ukraine. NATO member states in northern and eastern Europe are now more concerned about the possibility of war. In addition to mandatory military service to their citizens, Norway and Denmark distributed updated wartime guidance to their citizens to improve the readiness for potential military conflicts earlier this year. Recently, two newly joined NATO states, Finland and Sweden, updated and distributed booklets on how they better prepared for war, communication outages, blackouts, and extreme weather events. Sweden’s brochure, the fifth version since World War II, recommends stockpiling essential supplies like bottled water, sanitary products, medication, and baby food. Finland’s crisis guidance gives advice on how better prepared for long power cuts, water outages, telecommunications disruptions, and extreme weather events, in addition to military conflict. The better you’re prepared, the greater the chance of survival.
