“Schveden vas schippin’ as much iron ore to Shermany as ze Shermans could pay for.”
- Do your homework.
What country supplied Luftwaffe with tons of fuel prior to the outbreak of WW2?
Many Swedish companies didn’t shun lucrative business opportunities closely connected to the rise and of Nazi Germany, no, - and neither did British, French and American ones.
WW2 is a tragedy all of the West bears responsiblity of.
We all gave in to evil.
Where were the Americans and Britons when Germany invaded Norway and Denmark or when Soviet attacked Finland??
My father’s uncle was shot in Finland during WW2 by Soviet forces (he survived though). I speak for him here.
I’m sorry if I give the wrong impression. I admire the stance of both the Swedish and Swiss governments during the War. They both performed admirably their responsibility of protecting their own citizen.
Switerland took in 200,000 Jews from Nazi Europe, more per capita than any other nation. Sweden was a haven and conduit for the Jews who could make it there and no one can forget the contributions and sacrifice of Raoul Wallenberg, who in my opinion, probably accurately reflected the sentiments of the majority of his countrymen.
No country’s policies during the War, or before or since, are unblemished, there is fault to found in all. Certainly, on the whole, Sweden’s contributions to civilization are distinctly positive.
