In Göteborg, a contentious encounter unfolded as Kristdemokraternas leader Ebba Busch discussed EU elections, while a demonstration for Palestine took place outside.

Busch voiced concerns that the protestors were inadvertently fueling xenophobia by suggesting immigrants import conflicts and are unable to engage in democratic dialogue.

Critics, including Vänsterpartiets Kristofer Lundgren, countered, arguing for the right to protest and challenge political leaders.

Busch’s comments have sparked a debate over the balance between free speech and the risk of exacerbating societal tensions, highlighting the complex dynamics of immigration, conflict, and political discourse in Sweden.
