Swedish Opposition's Secret Talks for 2026

Published: 2024-10-24

In Sweden, opposition parties have initiated secret high-level discussions in preparation for the 2026 elections.

These talks aim to form a cohesive alternative to the current Tidö agreement, which has kept the ruling coalition stable.

However, significant tensions exist, particularly between the Center Party and the Left Party, complicating efforts to unite.

Despite these challenges, informal meetings, including shared meals, have been held to foster dialogue.

While no formal proposals have emerged, the opposition is exploring common ground on issues like offshore wind power.

The Social Democrats remain cautious, keeping options open for running independently, while the Green Party pushes for a more unified front.
