Sweden will name part of a park where the Russian embassy is located as Place of Free Ukraine, in solidarity with the Ukrainian people, the city of Stockholm said.
Anna Konig Jerlmyr, mayor of the Swedish capital, said the decision was taken on Thursday because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine on Feb 24.
"It will be a lasting symbol over the City of Stockholm's solidarity with the Ukrainian people and an important signal against the actions of the Russian regime," Konig Jerlmyr said in a Facebook post.
