    • 2007 January 16, Ivar Ekman, “Iraqi Refugees Find Sanctuary, and Fellow Iraqis, in Sweden”, in New York Times[1]:
      Sodertalje, a scenic industrial town about 20 miles southwest of Stockholm, is home not just to the truckmaker Scania, which has its main factory here, but also to a thriving and growing population of Iraqis, most of them Christians. Ms. Ewas chose Sodertalje because her brother lives here.
