In this Easter weekend edition of Radio Sweden Weekly we take a look at a half-century-old Easter tradition taking place inside the medieval walls of Visby, on the island of Gotland.
Also: The campaign's growing for the release from prison of Johan Floderus, the Swede who was arrested and arbitrarily detained on espionage charges almost two years ago while visiting friends in Iran. We speak to his sister Tove, and the Belgian aid worker Olivier Vandecasteele, who shared a cell with Floderus in Tehran's Evin prison.
And a former police chief and head of the intelligence service Säpo speaks about his ideas on how to turn around Sweden's escalating gang violence.

The government's climate action plan is paving an unnecessarily risky path for Sweden's climate transition, according to the Climate Policy Council. A closer look at this week's scathing report.
The government can't agree on the proposal for a new law on gender recognition, making it easier for people to change their legal gender. The dreaded ”dog buns” containing sharp metal objects are again being spread in Malmö - but reporters at the regional newspaper believe they are on to the culprit. And the controversy over the new coach for the Swedish men's football team's choice of language.

Also: Climate protests at the front of Sweden's Riksdag led by Greta Thunberg set tongues wagging this week, we'll hear what all the fuss is about.

Sweden's made a break with more than 200 years of neutrality and military non-alignment after finally joining the defence alliance Nato this week.
We also hear from the favourites ahead of this weekend's Melodifestivalen grand final, the winner of which will represent Sweden at the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö this May.
Also: the government is taking a harder stance on integration, but what responsibility do the Swedish people have for helping newcomers settle in? We put that question to the minister responsible.
