Forssell to ban Belarusian nuns from visiting Sweden
Published December 1, 2025 at 12.20

Foreign. A group of women from St. Elisabeth’s nunne monastery in Belarus visited Tibble church in Täby to sell, among other things, mittens, shawls and Russian dolls. Now Johan Forssell (M) will make sure that the women are never allowed to set foot in Sweden again.
"We have no obligation whatsoever to show hospitality," the Minister of Migration announces.

Migration Minister Johan Forssell has continued to receive as many immigrants as previously S-led governments – despite his promise of a “paradigm shift”.

Even in 2025, Tidö parties will move towards close to 100,000 distributed residence permits. During January-October, 75,000 such have already been awarded.

Now Forssell wants to review the rules for whether Christian Europeans with "connections to Russian interests" at all should be allowed to even visit Sweden.

The background is that Belarusian women from a nunnery were invited to Swedish churches. The Church of Sweden has accused the women of "indirectly" supporting the Russian state.

In a written comment to P4 Stockholm, Forssell writes now:

"There may be reason to review the possibilities for people with links to the Russian state's interests to stay in Sweden. We have no obligation whatsoever to show hospitality to people who support Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine."

At the same time, Forssell announces that he will contact the Migration Agency to test whether today's rules need to be changed.

The issue was highlighted when staff from St. Elisabeth's monastery in Belarus recently sold craft products in Tibble church in Täby.

This prompted the Church of Sweden to demand that the government put its foot down considerably against the Christian women.

"They actually support the Russian regime indirectly and we don't want to contribute to that," sägerLisa-Gun Bernerstedt, head of civil preparedness in the Church of Sweden, told Swedish Radio.

The Church of Sweden has issued a dissuade of its congregations from collaborating with the monastery.

St. Elisabeth's monastery denies being linked to the Russian state. For P4 Stockholm, representatives declare that the nuns' fundraisers go to charity, like food to poor and elderly care.
