Sweden has a major issue of Antiziganism (discrimination against Roma people).
In a survey commissioned by the Equality Ombudsman

in 2002/2003, Roma described the discrimination they experience in their daily lives. 90 percent stated that they perceive Sweden to a certain or high degree as a racist country. The same amount agreed to a certain or high degree to the statement that the country has a attitude view towards Roma. 25 percent did neither feel as a part of the Swedish population nor accepted in the Swedish society. And 60 percent said that they have been called derogatory or discriminatory terms related to their ethnic background at least once in the last two years.
