The bankruptcy of Swedish electric vehicle battery manufacturer Northvolt has exposed yet another layer of the engineered migrant crisis crippling Europe. The company, once hailed as a flagship of Europe’s “green transition,” filed for bankruptcy this month, leaving thousands of workers—many of them non-EU migrants—without jobs. But beyond the economic failure lies a far more sinister reality: Sweden’s welfare state is now shackled with yet another wave of unemployed foreign nationals who, in many cases, will refuse to leave, further straining social services and accelerating the erosion of Swedish culture.
The illusion of “green jobs” collapses alongside Northolt
Founded in 2016, Northvolt was supposed to be Europe’s answer to Chinese and American dominance in EV battery production. Backed by corporate giants like Volkswagen and Volvo, the company promised innovation, sustainability, and jobs. Instead, it delivered debt, delays, and now, total collapse. The fallout is particularly devastating in Skellefteå, where Northvolt’s factory employed nearly 3,000 workers—700 of whom held non-EU work permits.
But the true scandal isn’t just corporate mismanagement—it’s the systemic exploitation of migration policies. According to Sweden’s Migration Board, Northvolt was listed as the employer for 1,650 work permits across the country. With the company’s implosion, these workers now face a legal requirement to leave Sweden within three months if they fail to secure new jobs. Yet history shows most won’t. Instead, they’ll vanish into the shadows, living off taxpayer-funded welfare while contributing nothing to the society they’ve invaded.
Sweden’s migration shell game: naturalize, conceal, and bribe
Facing backlash over skyrocketing migration, Sweden’s government has resorted to statistical trickery. Migration Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard recently boasted that Sweden recorded net emigration for the first time in 50 years, with asylum applications plummeting to 1997 levels. “The government’s work yields results,” she declared. But right-wing analysts aren’t fooled.
Critics argue that Sweden is artificially reducing migration numbers by ramping up naturalizations—effectively turning “migrants” into “citizens” on paper while doing nothing to address their failure to assimilate. Worse, the government is now offering naturalized migrants cash bribes—up to 350,000 SEK (€30,000)—to leave under a “voluntary remigration” scheme set to launch in 2026.
“For those who have not entered Swedish society, remigration can be a way to create a better life for themselves,” Stenergard said, masking the policy’s true intent: a desperate attempt to reverse the demographic time bomb her predecessors created.
