Sweden. like Norway. plays an important role in our national security. Sweden is a strong partner in our fight against ISIS. in our attempts to curb North Koreas nuclear program. in supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression. and in promoting global democracy and human rights. Sweden is also on the front lines of the Syrian refugee crisis. More than 1.200 refugees seek asylum in Sweden every day. and Sweden accepts more refugees per capita than any other country in the EU. All of us on both sides of the aisle have talked about the importance of a strong Europe during this very difficult time. Yet every other major nation in Europe has an ambassador except for Sweden and Norway.
