HELSINKI (Reuters) -Sweden’s Foreign Minister Tobias Billstrom will step down next week, he wrote in a post on social media platform X on Wednesday.
“It is with a mixture of sadness and pride that I have today informed the prime minister that I will leave the post of foreign minister at the opening of parliament next week,” Billstrom wrote.
The 50-year-old said he would leave politics but had not decided what he would do next.
Billstrom of the conservative Moderate Party has served as foreign minister since October of 2022.
