Chapter 3602 National Idol

In the past, the royal family was mostly a mascot, and occasionally a puppet of the ruling government. The government would only call on the royal family when needed, and at other times the royal family had no chance to interfere in state affairs.

Moreover, the ruling party and cabinet have always been wary of the royal family, giving them superficial respect but preventing them from interfering in national affairs.

However, Helena's influence in Northern Europe is extraordinary, and she enjoys an excellent reputation throughout Europe and even the world. While bringing a perfect international image to Northern Europe, she has also brought in a lot of investment. With such a queen's help, the current Nordic government can be greatly relieved of pressure. Therefore, the government attaches great importance to her and is even willing to let Helena participate in national affairs to a certain extent. They will seriously consider Helena's suggestions and try to adopt them, which has given Helena a certain degree of so-called real power.

Her suggestions on how to handle the incident were quickly approved by the Nordic government. The government was well aware of the people's hatred of extreme environmentalism and their inability to speak out. Now that they had such a good opportunity to take action against them, whoever seized it would be a hero.

Of course, the only slightly unfair aspect of this matter is that it involves dragging Sweden down. Once the state intervenes, it's like putting Sweden in a very difficult position. If Sweden resolves the issue properly, in the eyes of the public, it can only be considered as making amends. But if Sweden can't resolve it, then it has to honestly bear the blame.

In contrast, no matter how Sweden handles this situation, it won't stop the Nordic countries from becoming heroes.

Therefore, the Nordic government released all the details of the matter to the media, while also sending the information to Sweden through diplomatic means and making a public statement to the media.

Helena herself, speaking to the media, stated firmly: "As the Queen of the Nordic countries, I demand that the Nordic police severely punish these lawbreakers who disrupt the normal order of Nordic society. Those who seriously violate Nordic laws should be handed over to the Nordic judicial authorities, and all others should be deported. I also demand that the immigration authorities impose a ten-year ban on these individuals from entering the Nordic countries. Furthermore, I publicly appeal to the Swedish government to conduct a thorough investigation into this organization that uses environmental protection as a pretext to amass wealth and seriously disrupts the lives of European people and the operation of businesses. I urge them to uncover every dirty and criminal act they have committed and punish them severely. I hope the Swedish government can conduct a fair, efficient, and swift investigation and handle this matter openly, fairly, efficiently, and quickly, and eradicate these black sheep from Europe!"

After being reported by major media outlets, Helena's video instantly made headlines across Europe and became the most popular content on social media and video platforms throughout the continent.

No one expected that Queen Helena, whose influence rivals that of top celebrities, would personally demand that the Nordic government arrest those extreme environmentalists, and even directly called on the Swedish government in a video to severely punish their organization.

It's important to understand that other countries have long been bullied by these people, but very few have actually been arrested. Even if they are symbolically arrested, they are quickly released after being criticized and educated, without any further judicial proceedings. It's unprecedented for a country like Northern Europe to arrest more than a hundred people at once and have the judicial authorities go through the process directly.

Helena's tough stance was also supported by a very good moral foundation. As the Queen of the Nordic countries, she showed no mercy to these lawbreakers who disrupted the Nordic order, making her the best example of loving her people like her own children.

Europeans were immediately thrilled and expressed their support and admiration for Helena online.

In the video, Helena is not only elegant and beautiful, but her voice is also melodious yet carries a powerful aura. Her undeniable strong attitude, combined with her flawless beauty, instantly maximizes her charm.

Europe has been detached from the world's cultural center for over a century, and in that time, it has produced almost no national idols. But now, Helena has all the elements of a European national idol.

In terms of appearance, she is impeccable;

In terms of status, they were incomparably noble;

In terms of charm, no one can match her;

More importantly, her humanity shines brightly; she is not only incredibly inspiring but also utterly flawless.

The European people love her to the core; men, women, and children all hold her in high esteem. This positive influence that covers the whole of Europe is something that no one in history has ever achieved. After all, Europe was never peaceful in the past, with various wars that have been going on for thousands of years. What is an idol in the eyes of the people of one country may be a devil in the eyes of the people of another country. It is rare for anyone to be universally recognized.

Many people online even say that the last European empress with such a strong will was probably Catherine II of Russia in 1762, who seized the throne through a coup.

Helena's reputation in Europe has reached a new level.

However, the Swedish authorities were suddenly put in a very passive position.

When many of the organization's misdeeds were exposed, Sweden itself was blamed for inadequate oversight. Every month, people all over Europe would mail hundreds of tons of used clothes to the organization's headquarters in Sweden, with donors even bearing the postage costs. After arriving in Sweden, these used clothes were brazenly packaged and sold to Africa by a so-called environmental organization, and the relevant Swedish departments were completely unaware.

Moreover, this is not the worst of all.

The most egregious acts are those demonstrations specifically targeting certain companies with ulterior motives. For money, they become the most unethical accomplices in business competition, forcing many companies to suffer losses or even go bankrupt, and causing countless employees to lose their jobs. If the evidence is conclusive, many of them will be sentenced to prison.

Swedish officials immediately convened an emergency meeting to discuss the current situation and how to handle it. At the meeting, the officials unanimously criticized Helena, believing that she had obviously climbed the social ladder by stepping on Sweden. After a long period of condemnation, they sat down dejectedly to discuss what to do next.

The reason why the Swedish government turned a blind eye to them was that although their behavior was somewhat extreme, they were indeed pioneers of environmental protection in Europe before their actions backfired. According to common sense, the more pioneers a country produces, the more it shows that the country itself is a leader in environmental protection.

In recent years, as the environmental girl's fame has continued to rise around the world, Sweden has become the environmental center of Europe. She has become famous, and her country will naturally benefit as well. Why not?

However, Sweden did not expect that these environmental pioneers would collapse so quickly. This time, hundreds of people were arrested in one go in the Nordic countries, and the entire huge environmental camp was wiped out, which immediately put the government in the spotlight.

Now, all of Europe is waiting for a public statement from the Swedish government, which is practically forcing the authorities to stand up and take the hit.

Although the Swedish government was frustrated, it knew that it had no other choice at the moment. So it could only publicly announce to the media that it had decided to thoroughly investigate domestic environmental organizations, accept public supervision, and release the investigation results to the public as soon as possible.

At this moment when Sweden stood firm and accepted the blows, in the eyes of the European people, it was a huge victory for Helena alone.

As a result, Helena's popularity soared once again, making her a national idol throughout Europe!
