Description
After several days of delays and uncertainty due to a dockworkers' union blockade, the freighter Baltic Performer, operated by a Swedish subsidiary of the Russian company Baltic Shipping, finally docks at the Helsingborg port in southern Sweden. One of Sweden's two main dockworkers unions, the Swedish Dockworkers Union, decided at the end of March that it would not unload vessels with ties to Russia in protest against Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. "The blockade blocks all goods related to Russia and the Russian regime" Rolf Lyktoft, head of the Helsingborg section of the dockworkers union says. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
