A man in his 60s has been fired from the Swedish Tax Agency (SKV). The reason is that he met a Russian woman 26 years ago, married her, and created a family togheter with children involved. This has now become a problem.

The man had worked with IT at SKV for approximately 10 years before he was informed by SKV that he could not continue working there any longer.

The man contacted Swedish news website, Samnytt, and told them that SKV fired him on recommendations from Säkerhetspolisen (SÄPO), the Swedish Security Service Agency, because they considered the man to be a “vulnerability” for the national security, based on his marriage to a Russian woman, who also holds a Russian citizenship.

SÄPO considers the man to be a risk, since he through his marriage, is considered to have “a strong connection to Russia”.

The man’s wife on the other hand, is said to be a Putin critic, and has called the current Russian president a “dictator” under her own name in comments on the Internet, Samnytt reports.
