Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson and Sweden Democrats leader Jimmie Åkesson have called a joint press conference scheduled for Wednesday at 11:30, according to reports from Expressen citing information from Aftonbladet. The party leaders are expected to address government formation questions, though the exact agenda was not specified in the invitation.
Multiple media outlets, including Svenska Dagbladet and TV4 Nyheterna, report that the Moderate Party has agreed to include the Sweden Democrats in a government if the Tidö parties win the upcoming autumn election. The press conference announcement follows reports that the Moderate Party will "let the Sweden Democrats into government" following the election, according to information obtained by TV4.
The development represents a significant shift in Swedish politics, with the traditionally center-right Moderate Party reportedly committing to formal government cooperation with the Sweden Democrats, a party that has previously provided parliamentary support but not held cabinet positions. The press conference is expected to provide official confirmation of this political arrangement ahead of the election campaign.
