Dear readers, Welcome to a new issue of Development Sweden. The Somali government has decided to declare the counsellor and head of Swedish Development Cooperation Anna Saleem Högberg persona non grata. The counsellor and deputy ambassador who is now expelled has reportedly smeared the Somali government. Also in this issue, Sweden gives SEK 100 million to humanitarian systems to compensate for USAID withdrawal. And what are the reactions from politicians in Sweden to Israel’s execution of Red Crescent staff in Gaza.

Development Sweden is providing you with exclusive insight about everything that happens in Swedish aid politics. Development Sweden depends on readers like you. If you would like to read the full newsletter you are most welcome to upgrade to a paid subscription.
