The Government supports UEFA Women’s EURO 2025
Published
The Government fully support The Football Association of Sweden, together with its Nordic partner FAs from Denmark, Finland and Norway, in their application on staging the Women’s EURO 2025 in Sweden and other Nordic countries.
Sweden has a long tradition in co-operating and building better societies together with our Nordic neighbours Denmark, Finland and Norway. Sustainable development, equality, a healthy way of life and Nordic cooperation are all core elements of our societies. These are the key reasons why the Government warmly welcomes the co-Nordic candidacy of the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025, and looks forward to welcoming a worldwide audience to Sweden and a first-class international sporting event.
– In a world where only 14 per cent of all countries are democracies, we must take responsibility and arrange sporting events in countries where human rights are respected, not where such events are used as a showroom for dictatorships, says Minister for sport Anders Ygeman.
