    Actually, FM Bildt of Sweden has denied the report in your link above.
    This in spite of the fact that all contitutional experts in Sweden, including the government’s own Chancellor of Justice, Göran Lambertz, have confirmed that it’s entirely ok for the government (and it’s representatives like ambassadors) to criticize or condemn a pulished article.
    The only thing they cannot do is interfere with a decision to print.
    The Swddish government’s position, including that of PM Fredrik Reinfeldt, is just very sad, cowardly and incomprehensible.
