In reply to H.P. Baxxter. Probably too late for that. Two corrections in a row?

In reply to ciccio. Do you blame them? They're trying to improve their writing skills.

Still not quite the right translation. I would have said “demanded”. It also clarifies any misunderstanding “Mr X asked for 60 million”, in headline grammar, could mean “Mr X was asked for 60 million”.

This shows that those at The Times are paying more attention to reading your blog than to making proper translations from Swedish to English.
