Statement by H.M. The King due to Kofi Annan's death
It is with great sorrow that I and the whole royal family received the message about Kofi Annan having passed away.
Kofi Annan was a warm and listening person who was characterized by profound wisdom.
Kofi Annan was a great leader with much empathy who was constantly working for human rights.
Over the years, I and our entire family developed a personal friendly relationship with Kofi Annan and his wife Nane.
Our warmest thoughts go now to Nane Annan and her family.

King Carl Gustaf visits today Bygdsiljum and Skellefteå.
Press release from the County Administrative Board of Västerbotten:
The theme of the day is From forest to sustainable construction.
The visit begins in Bygdsiljum at Martinssons. There is a walking tour as well as a dialogue about the conditions for industrial wood construction and the possibilities for refining the Swedish forest and using it to build climate-friendly housing.
In Skellefteå, a visit is planned at Morö Backe school, made of solid wood from the forest around Bygdsiljum. At Morö Backe school there is a clear link between the fact that the school environment is of wood well-being, as well as school results and health.
A walking tour and exhibition of Ekorren's parking garage, an example of how modern infrastructure projects can be built in wood, is followed by a seminar on industrial and sustainable wood construction. The day ends with a visit to the Zero sun pilothouse, a modern villa as self-sufficient for solar energy even during the dark season.

The king said that both his father, grandfather and great-grandfather were educated at the school. In 1973, the king himself took a shorter time in the Solback course, and:
- The Crown Princess has completed the Political Science program with focus on crisis management and international cooperation and participated in the Solbacka course. And Prince Carl Philip has undergone the higher reserve officer course, the king says and concludes:
I am convinced that the Swedish Defence University is very important for the continued development of our Swedish total defence system.
