The Center Party in Sweden is experiencing internal turmoil as party leader Muharrem Demirok faces criticism from within.
The controversy stems from Demirok's openness to a coalition with the Social Democrats, causing a rift among party members.
The youth wing, led by Caroline von Seth, has called for Demirok's resignation, citing weak leadership.
However, a recent crisis meeting saw the majority of the party backing Demirok, leaving von Seth's position in question.
The party is divided between those wanting to maintain ties with the right and those favoring a shift towards the left.
As the 2026 elections approach, the Center Party's direction remains uncertain, with Demirok's leadership seemingly solidified for now.
