Student evening in Lund with Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) barely started before slogans filled the hall.
– 30,000 people have been murdered in Gaza, shouted a woman from the stands.
– You are complicit in genocide!
Then protesters filled in climate messages:
– How dare you speak to students when you are destroying our future?
The Prime Minister stated that it is a fine tradition in Sweden that everyone is allowed to think differently and that everyone is allowed to speak. But it is also a tradition to speak one at a time, he stated.
Only after several minutes could he then begin his speech in front of Lund’s students. Later he was interrupted again and a woman was taken away by police.
