Work permits, defence volunteers, and what is Sweden doing to aid Ukraine?

42 min • 25 februari 2023

In the latest episode of our Sweden in Focus podcast, host Paul O’Mahony is joined by panelists Becky Waterton and Loukas Christodoulou


This week we talk about why children get a week off school at this time of the year.



We look at why Turkey has softened its stance on Sweden’s Nato application.



After a government press conference last week, we examine what progress Sweden is making on work permit reform.



With defence high on the national agenda we’ll ask Loukas to tell us about the volunteers who bolster Sweden’s armed forces.



Finally, to mark the first anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, we have an interview with the Ukrainian ambassador about how the past twelve months have reshaped Swedish-Ukrainian relations.
