During a recent X Spaces session with the Chief Executive Officer at Norges Bank Investment Management, Elon Musk shared his thoughts on the ongoing conflict between Tesla Sweden and trade union IF Metall. As per Musk, he remains optimistic about Tesla Sweden’s future.
“I think the storm has passed on that front. I think things are in reasonably good shape in Sweden.

Tesla Sweden has been facing numerous protests and blockades over the months, but the company has been able to work around them for the most part.
