Which country is next to join NATO?

Published in NATO Expansion 1 min read

Sweden was the most recent country to join NATO. As of this response, there are no confirmed future members.

Sweden deposited its Instrument of Accession to the North Atlantic Treaty on March 7, 2024, officially becoming NATO's 32nd member. This marked a significant expansion of the alliance, particularly given Sweden's historically neutral stance. As of this writing, no other country has a confirmed accession date or agreement in place. Any speculation about future members is based on ongoing political discussions and the fulfillment of NATO's membership criteria.
