– This is the worst mass shooting in Swedish history, says prime minister Ulf Kristersson.
– What has happened today is of course a terrible tragedy. It is an event that shakes about our entire society basically, something that you have been able to read about in other countries that we think “such does not happen in Sweden”, says, says Gunnar Strömmer.
Kristersson and Strömmer thanked police and school staff and were aimed at the victims and their relatives.
– My and all of Sweden’s thoughts are today primarily with those who are affected. We carry your grief, says Kristersson.
