Radio Sweden Weekly: Municipalities push back against government's repatriation plans

10/31/2025
A letter from the government's national co-ordinator on voluntary repatriation has seen municipality after municipality take a stand against it. We also hear the judge in a case that gained international attention, with people like Elon Musk and Donald Trump Jr commenting on social media. Why did they rule against expelling a man convicted of raping a 16-year-old girl? We take a look at the new fishing quotas set for the Baltic Sea next year, and visit Skansen, that for the first time is celebrating Halloween this year.
