Sweden's Foreign Minister taking aim at Saudi Arabia

Hey, 

http://www.spectator.co.uk/features/9481542/swedens-feminist-foreign-minister-has-dared-to-tell-the-truth-about-saudi-arabia-what-happens-now-concerns-us-all/

 Came across this article this week and am very interested in seeing what everyone thinks about it. Basically Sweden’s new foreign minister took aim at Saudi Arabia’s treatment of women in society as part of her attempt to bring a feminist perspective to foreign policy. Understandably Saudi Arabia was not too pleased by this and threatened to block trade with Sweden, most notably in arms (Sweden is a significant arms exporter). No one else in Europe or Sweden seems prepared to back her up and more or less want her to let it slide. What does everyone think about Saudi Arabia’s apparent ability to get the international community to overlook its subjugation of women?
