Tesla is suing the Swedish government to force it to take action against widespread strikes that have crippled the electric car maker’s operations.
Tesla sued the Swedish Transport Agency Monday after employees affiliated with Sweden’s public service union, Fackförbundent ST, stopped delivering mail, including license plates, to Tesla, local news sources reported Monday.
“This confiscation of license plates constitutes a discriminatory attack without any support in law directed at Tesla,” the automaker reportedly said.
Tesla has refused to deal with the local union and so staff went on strike on October 27, and other workers have been helping them out.
As part of “the Swedish model,” sympathy actions - known as sympatiåtgärd - like ST’s blockade on delivering mail to Tesla, are entirely legal.
Owner Elon Musk last week called the sympathy strikes “insane” in a post to X, his personal social media platform.
