President Joe Biden will host Sweden’s Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Wednesday at the White House, as the Nordic country’s path to NATO membership remains up in the air.

Sweden has expressed a strong desire to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), citing heightened security concerns following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last year.
