SWEDEN: Hi-level initiatives
On December 12, 2025, Swedish MP Jacob Risberg (Green Party) submitted a written question to Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard. The question follows up on a recent meeting with Eritrea’s foreign minister, where Sweden demanded the release of Dawit Isaak on humanitarian grounds and Swedish consular access.
Risberg asks what concrete actions the Swedish government has taken since the meeting, noting the urgency of the case — Isaak has been imprisoned without trial for over 20 years, with no confirmed information about his health or whereabouts.
