18.01.2022 Today marks the anniversary of the death of Dag Hammarskjöld. Dag Hammarskjöld was a world citizen. During his period as Secretary-General of the United Nation...s, from 1953 until his death in 1961, he became known as an efficient and dedicated international civil servant. Dag Hammarskjöld emphasised that a major task of the UN is to assert the interests of small countries in relation to the major powers. He was also among the architects of the UNs peacekeeping forces. Hammarskjöld was widely respected as a person of utmost integrity, who acted on the basis of moral and ethical values. Before he was appointed UN Secretary-General, Dag Hammarskjöld held high positions as a civil servant in the Swedish Government. He had a close connection to Swedens natural environment and traditions, while also being well acquainted with a variety of the worlds religions. Hammarskjöld also had wide cultural interests and was a member of the Swedish Academy. Today we honour the memory of Dag Hammarskjöld and pay tribute to his accomplishments.

18.01.2022 UD har idag beslutat om att förlänga avrådan från icke nödvändiga resor till alla länder utanför EU/EES/Schengenområdet/Storbritannien t.o.m. 31 jan 2021. Beslu...tet omfattar inte de länder för vilka avrådan tidigare har hävts. Här kan du se vilka länder UD tidigare hävt avrådan för: https://www.regeringen.se//a--andringar-av-avradan-fran-i/ Anledningen till beslutet är att det osäkra och föränderliga läge som var grunden till att vi införde avrådan från utlandsresor är kvar i stora delar av världen. Många länder har fortfarande stängda gränser eller omfattande begränsningar av in- och utresemöjligheter, karantänsbestämmelser och utegångsförbud. Det osäkra och föränderliga läget påverkar också i hög grad svenska utlandsmyndigheters möjlighet att bistå svenska medborgare och personer med hemvist i Sverige som befinner sig i utlandet. Med utgångspunkt i avståndet till Sverige, möjligheterna att kunna ta sig hem på egen hand om situationen skulle förändras samt villkoren för sjukvård, bedömer vi det inte som möjligt att häva avrådan för länder utanför EU/Schengen för närvarande. Mer om resande och avrådan hittar du här: https://www.regeringen.se//information-om-uds-arbete-med-/ #udresklar #ressäkert

14.01.2022 UD har idag uppdaterat reseråden för länder inom Europa. Efter den 29 juli avråder UD inte längre från resor till Danmark, Norge, Schweiz och Tjeckien. Sedan t...idigare har UD tagit bort avrådan från ett antal länder i Europa. För övriga EU, EES, Schengen och Storbritannien förlängs avrådan från icke nödvändiga resor till den 12 augusti 2020. En ny översyn kommer att göras dessförinnan. Mer information om beslutet och om vad som gäller för specifika länder finns här: https://www.regeringen.se//andrad-avradan-fran-icke-nodva/ Att UD nu beslutar att lyfta avrådan från Danmark och Norge är ytterligare ett steg mot det önskvärda målet om ett Norden fritt från hinder för människor att röra sig. Samtidigt är det viktigt att komma ihåg att läget inte är som vanligt igen. Alla resande ska följa rekommendationer som att hålla avstånd, tvätta händerna och avstå från att resa om man upplever symptom. Dessutom kan särskilda restriktioner och regler alltjämt förekomma i olika länder, och läget kan förändras med kort varsel. Den som planerar en resa har ansvar att hålla sig informerad om vad som gäller på destinationen. Jag uppmanar alla resenärer att hålla sig uppdaterade genom UD:s app Resklar och genom ambassadernas hemsidor på Swedenabroad.se.
