I know that selling from an US publisher to an UK bookstore was considered to be brey import and not perfectly OK.

But I have never heard that that is a problem when selling books to a non English country. So people claiming that it is against the rule for an US or UK publisher to sell books to a Swedish book store kind of have to give a reference to that for me to believe it.
For the umpteenth time, the contracts don't necessarily list places that are excluded, they list places that the contract allows as market areas... and if you're so damn doubting then buy some books from a publisher (as a retailer) and look at the contracts you have to sign... since I don't run a bookshop now I don't have such paperwork any more and as you are the Doubting Thomas" why should I have to waste my time searching for information to convince you... you already "think" and "believe" you're right from your vast experience in the book publishing and retail trade and don't care about the information from people who actually have such experience...
