In the latest in our series of interviews with ambassadors, we interview Nur Ashikin Mohd Taib, who leaves Sweden this week after serving for four years as Malaysia's top diplomat in Stockholm.
We also discuss how an activist group's hanging of an effigy of Turkey’s President Erdogan has further complicated Turkish-Swedish relations. Also:
- Sweden's new Centre Party leader to renounce Turkish citizenship

And we chat about a prime ministerial aide who has received a heft fine for illegally fishing endangered eels.
Also, we briefly discuss two stories that broke right as we were recording:
