Kristersson Criticized Over Sweden Democrats Alliance

Published: 2024-05-23

Sweden's Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson faces criticism for his handling of the coalition with the far-right Sweden Democrats.

The alliance, governed by the Tidö Agreement, mandates respectful discourse but has proven turbulent.

Critics argue Kristersson lacks the authority and leadership needed to manage such a partnership effectively.

Jimmie Åkesson, leader of the Sweden Democrats, has been accused of disregarding democratic norms and promoting misinformation.

The situation raises concerns about Sweden's political stability and the future of its democratic values.
