Trade between Sweden and Russia halved in 2022.
Sweden trade with Russia amounted to 18 billion kronor last year – down from 44 billion the year before, following EU sanctions due to Russia’s attack on Ukraine.
Imports of Russian aluminium to Sweden increased last year, as did exports of pharmaceuticals to Russia from Sweden.
But imports of enriched uranium completely stopped, and imports of gas, fertilisers and coal decreased significantly, according to government figures.
