As you probably know I was, with former prime minister Ingvar Carlsson, former foreign ministers Karin Söder and Hans Blix, a member of the Swedish quartet in support of a world free from nuclear weapons.
I am actively engaged in a number of initiatives lead by US senator Sam Nunn, former British minister of defence Des Browne and former Russian foreign minister Igor Ivanov aiming at developing a functioning dialogue about Euro Atlantic security in the spirit of Willy Brandt and Egon Bahr.
