It was recently pointed out that the existence of dark energy imposes highly
restrictive constraints on effective field theories that satisfy the Swampland
conjectures. We provide a critical confrontation of these constraints with the
cosmological framework emerging from the Salam-Sezgin model and its string
realization by Cvetic, Gibbons, and Pope. We also discuss the implication of
the constraints for string model building.
