Suède — Dossier militaire

MBA · 68/100 — La note Magna est notre composite 0–100 de la puissance nationale structurelle — cinq dimensions, plus de 100 indicateurs. C'est l'évaluation propre du Bureau, pas un miroir des chiffres de la Banque mondiale ou de la CIA.

Momentum 0 — Momentum trimestriel : la lecture du Bureau sur la trajectoire du pays au dernier trimestre, de −10 (dégradation rapide) à +10 (accélération).

Aucun événement unique n'a défini juillet-septembre 2026. La position du pays est le produit de forces de long cycle — géographie, commerce, voisins — toutes restées stables.

Un momentum à zéro n'est pas de la stagnation ; c'est le constat exact d'un trimestre sans catalyseur.
