STOCKHOLM: Sweden asked India to clarify how Swedish-made weapons wound up in Myanmar in breach of EU sanctions, after it was revealed the Indian army had purchased the arms, Trade Minister Ewa Bjorling said.
The announcement came a day after Sweden’s export control agency said it was investigating the arms presence, a probe Bjorling said had already borne fruit.
She told parliament that the Swedish Agency for Non-Proliferation and Export Controls (ISP) had informed her that the arms came from India.
