DISINFO: Sweden is a conformist and degenerated country

SUMMARY

Sweden is a conformist and degenerated country with no freedom of speech.

RESPONSE

Recurring pro-Kremlin narrative about West's moral decay. The narratives presented are well-known in the pro-Kremlin description of Sweden. Contrary to that description, Sweden is ranking as number 3 on the global democracy index for 2015 and is this year celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Swedish Press Act – a pillar of democracy and the first in the world of its kind.

Disclaimer

Cases in the EUvsDisinfo database focus on messages in the international information space that are identified as providing a partial, distorted, or false depiction of reality and spread key pro-Kremlin messages. This does not necessarily imply, however, that a given outlet is linked to the Kremlin or editorially pro-Kremlin, or that it has intentionally sought to disinform. EUvsDisinfo publications do not represent an official EU position, as the information and opinions expressed are based on media reporting and analysis of the East Stratcom Task Force.
