Sweden: Top security adviser lasts 30 minutes on the job after intimate dating app pics surface

  • Tobias Thyberg resigned as Sweden's national security adviser on May 12, 2025, minutes after his appointment due to leaked intimate dating app photos.
  • The scandal erupted because the photos, linked to an old Grindr account and shared via encrypted email, were undisclosed during his security vetting.
  • Thyberg, a 49-year-old diplomat and former ambassador to Ukraine and Afghanistan, admitted he should have informed the government about the images.
  • Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson called for an investigation, criticized the vetting failure, and acknowledged the images had not appeared in security checks.
  • The resignation deepens concerns over Sweden's security vetting, risks undermining NATO partnerships, and marks the second consecutive scandal in the adviser role since 2022.
