Swedes launch boycott of US goods in response to recent policy shifts

By Evelyn Ann-Marie Dom Published on 07/03/2025 - 17:27 GMT+1 Group members hope the boycott can effectively pressure the US administration, and use the platform to share alternative buying options. A series of boycott movements emerged in response to the US' recent policy changes, including Washington's decision to halt support to Ukraine and the announcement of tariffs on Europe, in what the followers believe will place some pressure on the US administration. In Sweden, several Facebook groups calling for the boycott of US products have gained a significant number of followers quickly. One group, "Boykot varer fra USA," racked up almost 67,000 members, while another, "Bojkotta varor från USA," has more than 70,000.
