'Unlike Finland, we have a larger share of funding for the PKK from Sweden,' Stockholm's top NATO negotiator Oscar Stenstrom tells state-owned Sveriges Radio

Speaking to the state-owned Sveriges Radio, Oscar Stenstrom said: "Unlike Finland, we have a larger share of funding for the PKK from Sweden." Stenstrom further said he acknowledges that the PKK is involved with the drug market, which is considered to be one of the main funding channels of the terrorist organisation.
"These people are often multitaskers in their field. Terrorist financing and serious crime are linked – yes. It is far from explaining everything, but extortion, financing weapons and drugs exist in this field," he said.
