"We would appreciate it if the protection could be strengthened so that we can thus stop smuggling. Then we also need more resources to be able to carry out more checks and find the right containers, says Stefan Granath in SVT's Aktuellt.
Swedish Customs has asked for one billion kronor spread over three years from the government, in order to, among other things, be able to streamline the work against drug smuggling.
"It's a challenging task for us to try to be in all these different places and find the right type of goods. Because it is not possible to control everything that enters the country's borders, says Granath.
But will the smugglers be affected by the large seizures they have already made?
"I think so. We have seized such large quantities, so the effect will probably be that they will have to look for other places to bring in the drugs. If we steer organized crime out of here, then we have really made a difference for society, says the control manager.
