- On the one hand, it is extremely serious.

It is an attack on the European security system that we have not yet seen the end of.

On the other hand, I can not help but think of the people of Ukraine, says Johan Pekkari, Brigadier General of the Armed Forces in an interview in tonight's extra agenda.

- I am thinking of the Ukrainian colleagues that we have been there and trained since 2018.

Regarding the security situation for Sweden after the Russian invasion, Johan Pekkari describes it as if you now have to wait and see.  

- In the short term, we assess that there is no risk for Sweden.

In the longer term, it is important to follow developments closely.

And we do.

But it's hard to say where it's going when the snowball is set in motion.

However, he believes that the risk of a military attack on Sweden has not increased.

Furthermore, Pekkari says that the Swedish defense is constantly making adjustments to the preparedness.

- Today, for example, we have strengthened preparedness for incident flights.

We practice and monitor special objects that are important.
