The point of view of the Swedish government regarding visa restrictions for Russian athletes is similar to the view on this issue in Finland and Norway. This is what the Acting Prime Minister of Sweden, Olaf Kristerson, said upon his arrival at the EU summit in Dublin.
"We look with alarm at the fact that attempts are now being made to normalize relations with Russia. Sweden's point of view is very close to the point of view of Finland and Norway," he said, referring to the restrictive measures of the Finnish and Norwegian authorities regarding Russian athletes.
