Vänsterpartiet, a Swedish political party, is embroiled in controversy following allegations of antisemitism among its members.

The Jewish Central Council has barred the party from its memorial events, citing antisemitic remarks by local politicians.

In response, Vänsterpartiet leader Nooshi Dadgostar has called for a meeting with the council, emphasizing the importance of dialogue and condemning racism and antisemitism.

The party has taken action by expelling members involved in such controversies, but internal and external pressures remain high.

Critics argue that the party's stance on Israel and Palestine is not strong enough, adding to the tension.

This situation poses challenges for potential future coalitions with other left-wing parties in Sweden.
