Regeringens beslut är inte det enda positiva beskedet som Raoul Wallenberg-institutet fått nyligen. USA har också ändrat sig och gett grönt ljus för ett av de internationella projekt som tidigare stoppats.

Fantastiska nyheter. Regeringen går in och räddar vårt bibliotek åtminstone tillfälligt, nu fortsätter arbetet att säkra långsiktig finansiering från regeringen. Men mycket värdefullt beslut av Johan Pehrson idag. www.dn.se/sverige/unik...
