WARNING TO RESIDENTS: Barkarbystaden has become a military target area

The security situation for residents and those moving to Barkarbystaden has changed radically – without Järfälla Municipality having informed the public.

The Armed Forces have reactivated the mountain base Barkarby 4:1 (Robot Height) and have begun new construction. What was supposed to be civilian urban development is now an active military facility right next to our homes and the new metro station.

This is being hidden from you as a resident:

  • The council is covering up the information: Järfälla Municipality refuses to release the Swedish Armed Forces' classified referral opinion to Master Plan 2050. Access to how the defence perceives the risks in our immediate vicinity is completely closed.
  • Strategic bombing target modern Russian hypersonic missiles, like Oreshnik, are in practice impossible to stop with today's air defence. Placing protected military infrastructure directly next to a densely populated residential area makes Barkarbystaden a primary target in the event of a conflict.
  • There are no shelters. Despite living right next to a primary military target, the planned housing development lacks civilian shelters.
  • Lessons from the Middle East: Experience shows how vulnerable it is to concentrate strategic resources near civilians. The USA has repeatedly lost the initiative and bases in the Middle East because fixed facilities cannot be protected against modern missile and drone attacks.

The crossroads: Diplomacy or economic devastation?

Europe's current security policy is stuck in a dangerous deadlock. Without a clear strategy for how the conflict should end, support for Ukraine continues, draining the EU's resources and increasing the risk of a major war.

The risks of the current line:

  • Economic exhaustion Europe's countries bear a heavy economic burden that directly impacts welfare and industry.
  • Escalation spiral When military means do not yield results, the stakes are raised, bringing us closer to a full-scale conflict.
  • Political prestige The fear of failure prevents decision-makers from reconsidering strategy, which locks in policy.

Ambition Sverige’s way forward:

To secure Sweden's future, a shift from confrontation to diplomacy.

  • Open channels: Dialogue is not weakness. Conflicts can ultimately only be resolved at the negotiating table.
  • A realistic peace A sustainable security architecture in Europe must be based on a balance that reduces the risk of future wars.
  • Domestic focus: Sweden's resources should primarily be used to secure our own economy and the welfare of its citizens.

It takes political courage to choose the negotiating table over the battlefield.
