SWEDEN IN FOCUS

LISTEN: Swedish gangster rap, property market turbulence, and who’s Chris O’Neill?

In the latest episode of Sweden in Focus: why Sweden may soon find itself in court over its alleged climate inaction; Swedish gangster rap; the lowdown on Chris O’Neill, the British-American husband of Princess Madeleine; interview with the US ambassador; and property market forecast.

In the latest episode of our Sweden in Focus podcast, host Paul O’Mahony is joined by panelists James Savage, Becky Waterton and Richard Orange

This week we’re talking about why the Swedish state may soon find itself in court over its alleged climate inaction. 

After our chat with crime reporter Diamant Salihu a few weeks ago we go deeper on Swedish gangster rap and look at how close some of its most successful practitioners are to the gang violence they depict. 

We’ll give you some background on Chris O’Neill, the British-American husband of Princess Madeleine as the couple prepare to move back to Sweden. 

We have an interview with the United States’ ambassador to Sweden, Erik Ramanathan, about his impressions of Sweden and the strength of the countries’ bilateral relationship. 

And, finally, we’ll see what the forecast is like for the Swedish property market, and why foreigners are busy snapping up summer homes.
