TEHRAN, October 02 -The speaker of Sweden’s parliament said on Tuesday he had given the leader of the center-right, opposition Alliance, Ulf Kristersson, a mandate to see if he can form a government.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -The speaker of Sweden’s parliament said on Tuesday he had given the leader of the center-right, opposition Alliance, Ulf Kristersson, a mandate to see if he can form a government.
Voters delivered a hung parliament in the Sept. 9 general election with the center-left bloc headed by the Social Democrats garnering 144 seats, one more than the four-party Alliance.
The anti-immigration Sweden Democrats, with 62 seats, hold the balance of power, but have said they will not support an Alliance or a center-left government without gaining influence over policy.
