Liberal Party leader Simona Mohamsson has reportedly changed her position on Sweden Democrats leader Jimmie Åkesson, according to an interview published in Svenska Dagbladet. Mohamsson, who previously described Åkesson as "a racist party leader for a racist party who says racist things about his racist politics," now says she no longer views him as racist after a personal meeting. The Liberal Party leader has reportedly led her party to make a complete reversal, agreeing to cooperate with the Sweden Democrats in government after the next election.
Mohamsson has faced repeated questioning in recent interviews about whether she still considers Åkesson racist, according to the report. The Liberal Party leader has also reportedly urged party members who cannot accept cooperation with the Sweden Democrats to withdraw from parliamentary elections.
