Swedish Foreign Minister Sten Andersson changed his travel plans after a bomb threat against his country’s national airline, Swedish Radio said Sunday.

Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) security chief Urban Paulin said Sweden’s secret police had received a note threatening an attack on an unspecified plane leaving Paris, where Andersson is attending an international conference on chemical weapons.

Andersson hosted a meeting last month between Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman Yasser Arafat and U.S. Jews and later helped to draft a document in which Arafat recognized Israel’s right to exist.
