The Ambassador of Sweden to The Netherlands and Ambassador Marie Jacobsson, Ministry for Foreign Affairs take part in the centennial jubilee of the autonomous Åland Islands. This seminar is by invitation only.
The Åland solution provided answers to the issue of political decision-making and power sharing, the issue of security on Åland and the issue of protection of the identity, culture and language of the Swedish-speaking islands.
The decisions by the League of Nations and the agreements of 1921 resolved the international aspects of the conflict and Finland implemented the agreed guarantees in its national legislation. The Convention on the Non-fortification and Neutralisation of the Åland Islands was signed in 1921 by the British Empire, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Poland and Sweden.
Sweden has diplomatic relations with almost all States in the world. It has embassies and consulates in around half of these. Sweden's foreign representation consists of approximately 100 missions abroad and 350 honorary consulates.
