Lately, the Swedish 🇸🇪 food prices have been intensively discussed. Higher prices ↗️ cause consumers to urge a boycott against the large Swedish food retailers, who are believed to profit on high prices. SCB (Statistics Sweden) report a 3.9% increase in overall food prices in 1 year. [🧵 1/7]

Remember Belarus. Five years have passed since the big protests against their dictator, now a Russian vassal. The "Jerusalema" videos were mostly produced around Christmas 2020.

Grattis Republiken Finland på självständighetsdagen! 🇫🇮
Övergången till republik i Sverige blir inte ett språng ut i det okända, tvärtom – de flesta demokratiska länder i vår närhet är trots allt republiker och trivs utmärkt med det. Parlamentariska republiker fungerar. Se bara på Finland!

Den här mannen har överhuvudtaget ingen moral: Statsministern bevistade idag SD:s pågående landsdagar i Örebro och berömde och tackade partiet för dess insatser och detta bara några år efter att Kristersson lovade Hédi Fried att han aldrig skulle inleda ett samarbete med SD.

Feel awkward to be Swedish 🇸🇪 during this COP. No minister present from the government and our King makes statements that undermine the negotiations.
Pathetic and embarrassing.

The Swedish King stepping in it today in Brazil by suggesting that the multilateral climate change process is likely to fail and that Europe does not have any responsibility to pay for climate change impacts on the Global South. He is wrong and should be prevented from making such statements.

Plain terrorism, nothing else. Footage has emerged of the Russian drone strike hitting a private kindergarten in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Children were inside when the strike landed.

Good news for Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Sweden 🇸🇪 today! Ukraine intends to buy 100-150 Jas 39 Gripen E.
Will the next step be that Sweden increases donations to Ukraine, essentially buying them for Ukraine?
Also when will it be annonced that 🇸🇪 and 🇺🇦 will be developing the next generation stealth fighters?

Oh look, Sweden is being shit towards the Sami (again)
If a proposed rare-earth minerals mine goes forward in northern Sweden, it could ruin the lives of Sami Indigenous herders whose reindeer have roamed this land for thousands of years.
Sweden's plans to mine rare-earth minerals could ruin the lives of Indigenous Sami reindeer herders
An expanding iron-ore mine and a deposit of rare-earth minerals are fragmenting the land in northern Sweden and altering ancient reindeer migration routes.

I agree with this. I am sure Putin was chuckling all the way back to Moscow over how he made a fool of Trump, but he still has all the same problems he had before and did not get substantially closer to winning the war.
But I wouldn't overstate Putin's gains either. Yes, got his moment of glory, and may have stirred up tensions in the trans-Atlantic alliance, but now he'll come back to the daily realities of a broken country that's facing a recession and a war that's not really going anywhere.
