Swedish Dockers Sued for 'Illegal' Blockade of Russian Ships

"Employers' trade union Ports of Sweden is suing the Port Workers' Union over its blockade of Russia-linked goods and ships, which it deems illegal.

Because of the blockade imposed on 28 March, members of the Port Workers' Union no longer deal with Russian ships, Russian goods and ships on their way to or from Russia. According to the dockers' union, the blockade is designed to show sympathy for, and solidarity with Ukraine. 

The employers, however, argue that the industrial action is illegal and have taken the issue to court.

Ports of Sweden press officer Håkan Filipsson confirmed that the case has been passed on to the Labour Court, where it will be taken up later this week." Sputnik
