Oct 21, 2016 at 2:06 comment added KorvinStarmast @NathanCooper Downvote removed, and thanks for the correction. Plenty of good points in your answer. Sweden did indeed look after its own interests, as it continued to do after the war while remaining neutral.
Oct 20, 2016 at 20:12 comment added Nathan @KorvinStarmast I've actually moved to Sweden since writing this answer, so there's absolutely no excuse. It's still a complete wikipedia binge, but hopefully it's easier to read and doesn't contain any skitsnack about the Swedes. Thanks for the ping.

Generally make this answer less rubbish looking. Remove wrong suggestion that Sweden was in the axis.
Oct 20, 2016 at 15:52 comment added KorvinStarmast Listing Sweden as a co belligerent earned a -1. Clean that up and I'll reverse it. Sweden was neutral in WW II.
Jun 6, 2016 at 20:02 comment added Stephan Kolassa Sweden was neutral, not a co-belligerent with Germany and Finland. (For all I know, they may well have mined the Baltic - it would certainly have made sense.)
Dec 30, 2012 at 21:40 comment added Felix Goldberg To sum it up, crudely (talking about surface combat): The Baltic (Talinn) was overrun by the Germans, so the Soviet Navy couldn't fight them there. The Black Sea was inaccessible to the Germans, so SN didn't need to fight them there.
