US President Donald Trump has said he is very disappointed with Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven, who has not released American rapper A $ AP Rocky.
A $ AP Rocky is being prosecuted for mistreatment. The rapper was arrested in Sweden at the beginning of July this year after footage surfaced showing that he hit and kicked a man.
The American president expressed his disappointment on Twitter . “Very disappointed in Prime Minister Stefan Lofven because he was unable to act. I saw the images of A $ AP Rocky and he was followed and insulted by troublemakers.”
Give A$AP Rocky his FREEDOM. We do so much for Sweden but it doesn’t seem to work the other way around. Sweden should focus on its real crime problem! #FreeRocky

The Swedish prosecutor announced on Thursday that the rapper and two men from his entourage will be definitively prosecuted.
The images were first shared on social media by A $ AP Rocky. This showed how the rapper tried to calm down a fight. Two men would have been following the rapper and his entourage for some time, even though they had asked the men to stop.
