Of 13 places six didn't speak Swedish at all, 4 had difficulties while handling the situation successfully, three spoke it very well. - On the same days YLE News had an article [Thursday's papers: Presidential reception, Swedish service, and dairy strike](https://yle.fi/a/74-20063809) which refers to the HS.fi article.
