“Eid Mubarak to everyone who celebrates. Hope you have a nice day with loved ones and that there is a lot of baklava!” Ann Linde writes on Twitter.

She has also published a photograph of herself with a plate of baklava.

The post has attracted hundreds of comments.

Several notes that Linde does not mention anything that today is a Swedish Christian holiday, Ascension Day.

Others urge Linde to put on her veil, with reference to how she as Minister of Trade in 2017 wore such a Muslim garment during a visit to Iran.
