    New agreement for the pilots in the air force

    The Swedish Armed Forces, together with the Officers’ Union and SACO-S FM, have signed two new collective agreements for pilots in the air force, writes the Swedish Armed Forces on its website.

    It has also been agreed to raise the pilots’ salaries. And the pilots who do not have 55 as the retirement age will receive an extra premium provision for the pension. This is SEK 4,000 a month for 20 years. The money begins to be set aside ten years after the pilot training begins.

    – We are self-critical and of course could have acted earlier, but this agreement is more positive than I could have hoped for. I am very satisfied that we have now arrived at new conditions for the air force’s pilots, says air force chief Jonas Wikman in a comment.

    At a donor conference for Sudan in Geneva, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday appealed to countries to increase aid pledges for Sudan, which is experiencing a major humanitarian crisis.

    The conflict between the rival military factions in Sudan has led to the displacement of 2.2 million people, reports Reuters.

    According to the UN, around 3 billion dollars are needed this year for humanitarian aid in Sudan and for those leaving the country.

    Only a fraction of this has been funded.

    – Without strong international support, Sudan could quickly become a place of lawlessness and spread insecurity throughout the region, Guterres warned at a fund-raising conference organized by Germany, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt and the United Nations.
