On the web: http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/node/1322 Swedish Foreign Affairs Ministry Backs Ship to Gaza's Opposition to Gaza Blockade SUBMITTED BY ROBERT NAIMAN ON 21 OCTOBER 2012 - 10:55AM This is a translation of part of a Swedish press report. I am responsible for the translation, in consultation with the Swedish media team of the Estelle. The Swedish Government and the EU insist that there is a severe > humanitarian situation in Gaza and that the border crossings must be > opened; this is a position that happens to coincide with the "Ship to Gaza" > position. Given that we believe that the blockade should be broken, it > would have been reasonable that the boat should have been allowed to > proceed, says MFA's press officer Anders Jörle to DN.se.
