Lennart Bodström death – Vasterbotten Courier

News The former foreign and education minister Lennart Bodström (S) died night after a short illness.

Bodström was chairman of the TCO 1970-1982. Subsequently appointed Olof Palme Lennart Bodström, Minister for Foreign Affairs

He got in 1985 its name to the so-called Bodström deal. It was the result of a dinner at the Daily News there Bodström met six journalists. Afterwards claimed some of the journalists that Bodström said that he did not believe the numerous data on Soviet submarine violations in Swedish waters, a sensational job then.

The criticism led to a vote of no confidence from the bourgeois parties, but Bodström was supported by a slim majority in parliament.

After the election in 1985 was Bodström, Minister of Education and from 1989 to 1993, he was Sweden’s Ambassador in Oslo.

Lennart Bodström was 87 years.
