After Greta Thunberg made an appeal for pressure to be put on the Swedish government to release her and the other activists from the Israelis, the Foreign Ministry released a statement saying consular support could be offered to her and any other Swedes.

That’s how it stood for most of the day. But within the last hour, Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard was interviewed outside the Swedish parliament.

She said the assessment of the situation is that the activists on the Madleen are not in any danger and, therefore, aren’t in need of consular support.

      i think it should be clear by now how the world’s powerful are aligned when it comes to a genocide and i wonder if this is how genocides are allowed to happen; by pretending it’s not happening like how we pretend people on the streets who beg for assistance become invisible.
