“It happened, for example, that invited representatives of Russian civil society did not come to our meetings, fearing that we were unsafe,” Linde said in an interview with Aftonbladet.

She also noted that a number of media outlets cover only negative events in Sweden.

The Foreign Minister urged to work to “block the disinformation” and show that the authorities are doing everything to solve problems.

It was previously reported that a 15-year-old was killed as a result of the shooting in a square in Malmö.

Linde headed the Swedish Foreign Ministry in September 2019.
