A city official in Stockholm has said the municipality has no plans to comply after one of its offices received a letter seeking to impose Donald Trump’s rollback of diversity measures, in what is believed to be the first such missive sent to a foreign government.
“It’s so bizarre,” said Jan Valeskog, Stockholm’s vice-mayor for planning. “It’s our political priorities that count, not the ones from this embassy or any other embassies.”
This being a totally different legal jurisdiction makes the whole thing nothing more that an empty threat and pretty sad attempt at bullying, which can be safelly ignored which is exactly what the Stockholm authorities are doing.
