There is some debate about that; Saab's own earlier relaease stated that the
Swedish government had agreed to absorb ALL costs for this lease.

That must be an misunderstanding. The deal is that the Swedish government
will lease, to the Czech Republic, aircraft it has ordered from Saab, but
no longer needs, and that the lease should cover all costs that the Swedish
government have had for the leased aircrafts, i.e. the lease deal is cost
neutral for the Swedish government.
