Sweden will phase out bilateral aid to Zimbabwe and Mozambique by August 2026 due to changing foreign policy priorities and European security concerns. The government will close its Zimbabwe embassy, which focused on development projects since 1980. Officials said the decision does not reflect local events. Sweden will continue ties through trade, investment, and multilateral channels, while maintaining humanitarian assistance despite ending bilateral programs.
