Swedish Foreign Ministry requested this week to temporarily remove two paintings containing swastikas from the museum of modern art in Stockholm.
The appeal came following the diplomatic incident between Israel and Sweden ignited by an article accusing the IDF of “organ harvesting,” published earlier this month in a prominent Swedish tabloid.
The Swedish foreign ministry said this week that the paintings might spark discomfort at the conference for the European Union Foreign Ministers to be held in the city at the end of the week.
The museum spokesman confirmed the request and added that a painting containing female genitalia was also removed from the exhibition.
