metadata.value: The modern U.S. foreign policy is facing a number of challenges. In the context of Europe,
  among other things, they can be characterized by the continuing confrontation with Russia
  and contradictions with regional allies. For example, Washington’s concern is the development
  of independent military-political approaches of the European Union and the creation
  of Permanent Structured Cooperation in security and defence spheres (PESCO). Additional
  negativity contributes the upcoming exit of the UK from the EU. This set of problems leads
  to the need to adjust the existing system of American unions in Europe. Against this background,
  the development of cooperation with Finland and Sweden can be very promising for
  Washington’s interests. Both countries, while not being members of NATO, tend to focus on
  the United States in their foreign policy. At the same time, cooperation with them may contribute
  to America’s interests advancing in Europe. Previously, relations with these countries
  were not very active, but the changes are becoming more and more obvious. So, in May 2018,
  a statement of intent was signed between the United States, Finland and Sweden to develop
  cooperation in the military and political domain. In addition, there is an increase in cooperation
  within the framework of the organization of the Nordic Defence Cooperation (NORDEFCO).
  The scale of military activities exercised in northern Europe, in which the United
  States is actively involved, is also increasing. This article discusses the modern aspects of the
  U.S. military-political cooperation with Finland and Sweden. Special attention is paid to the
  importance of these countries for the American policy in Europe in the context of modern
  transatlantic contradictions, the interest of the U.S. military industrial complex on the European
  market and compensation for the Brexit. On the basis of the material studied, the author
  makes assumptions about further ways of cooperation between the three countries. The study
  was conducted on the basis of official government documents and the positions of Western
  and Russian experts.
