Jonas Attenius, the leader of the Social Democrats in Gothenburg, recently faced criticism for delivering a speech at a Muslim holiday event and supporting a boycott of Israeli goods.

Critics, including political leaders like Ebba Busch, have questioned his judgment, especially given the rising antisemitism.

Attenius responded by expressing his hatred for Hamas and defending his actions as support for community cohesion.

The boycott policy has led to a police report filed by Gothenburg's Liberals, claiming it violates municipal law.
