Voting under way in Sweden with far-right eyeing first role in government
Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported32m ago
Voting is under way in Sweden for a closely fought, high-stakes general election. The vote could result in the far-right Sweden Democrats (SD), a party with neo-Nazi roots, entering government for the first time and securing key ministerial positions if the right-wing bloc wins.
The far-right movement is gaining ground by capitalizing on voter concerns regarding crime and security, issues that some segments of the electorate increasingly associate with migration. Additionally, the party has worked to soften its public image in recent years, contributing to its broader acceptance during an unusually heated and polarized electoral cycle.
