Development Sweden #70. Sweden stops ODA to Afghanistan – drastic cuts in Asia and Africa programs
A newsletter on Swedish development cooperation and policy
Dear readers,
Welcome to a new issue of Development Sweden. We had expected that nice summer break but not. “Hidden”, as not to disturb the cosy feeling at the Almedalen Political Week, the Swedish government had planned new drastic cuts in the ODA to Asia and Africa, while increasing the support to Ukraine even more (and at the same time fund export by Swedish companies). Read all about the changes in this issue of Development Sweden.
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.
