But Elon Musk and Tesla have refused to talk with the unions, and in October, over a hundred Swedish Tesla workers walked out in protest, triggering a wave of sympathy strikes across the country. In this video, we're going to take a look at why Tesla is suing Sweden, why Sweden loves unions, and who's going to win.
