Russia has stepped up its propaganda war against Sweden by producing bus stop advertisements accusing the peaceful Scandinavian nation of being Nazis.
The hybrid warfare strategy comes as Sweden prepares for NATO accession, abandoning decades of neutrality in light of Moscow's military aggression towards Ukraine.
The provocation comes hot on the heels of Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov's incendiary comments that 'Hitler had Jewish blood', which drew demands for an apology from Israel.
The campaign has seen adverts pop up in Russia depicting various Swedish national heroes as Nazis with the slogan: 'We are against Nazism, they are not.'
The word 'we' is in the colour of the Russian flag and 'they' in the colours of the Swedish flag. Selective quotes appear next to each picture purporting to paint the figure as a Nazi.
Astrid Lindgren, the creator of one of Sweden's touchstone culture products in Pippi Longstocking, is singled out for her alleged Nazi attitudes, as well as Ikea founder Ingvar Kamprad and film maestro Ingmar Bergman.
Another poster paints Sweden's King Gustaf V as a Nazi.

It looks to me like the Russians are doing what everyone in the world seems to do...call your opponent Nazis. Really it’s the logical default position of how arguments are settled in the 21st century. Want shock value?...go straight to the Hitler comparison.
They learn quick, but still a little slow on the draw with the racist label thing.
Swedish Fish.
Nazis.
Just because the West has gone nuts doesn’t mean everyone else has to do the same.
Sweden? Nazi? Crazy talk.
Well..there is one little tart in that country that is a nazi. So it is at least true for that one.
Bus stop advertisements now? Is nothing sacred?
That’s where the conscript pool is in Russia.
Kinda hard to tell who’s talking when it’s Russia or the Democrats. LOL
Just like the Democrats.
I am an ABBA fan and love their music which has been compared to German style folk music.
But of course Anni-Frid Lyngstad’s father was a Sergeant in the Wehrmacht when the Nazis occupied Norway.
Her mother had to flee Norway to Sweden because of the outcast status of Anni-Frid.
Yup…
Russia entered into a pact with Nazi Germany of their own free will.
A lot of Jewish blood in those Swedes. Jews always make the worst Nazis.
