The Moderates, Christian Democrats and Liberals have announced that they support SD’s declaration of no confidence. Together they have 174 votes in the Riksdag.
But it takes 175 votes to overthrow the government. There, the political savage Amineh Kakabaveh, formerly of the Left Party, plays a crucial role. If she chooses to support the no-confidence motion, the government will be overthrown.
“Stir to it at home”
In Sunday’s Agenda, Minister of Finance Mikael Damberg (S) and party secretary Gunnar Strömmer (M) met to discuss the no-confidence vote against Minister of Justice Morgan Johansson (S).
Mikael Damberg thinks that the timing is troublesome, considering that there are three months left until the election and that Sweden has ongoing NATO negotiations with Turkey together with Finland.
– In this situation, when we have negotiations with other countries, to mess it up at home, I think it is unwise.
Gunnar Strömmer maintains that the distrust of Morgan Johansson has nothing to do with NATO.
– The Moderates have throughout the spring devoted an incredible amount of care to helping with the NATO process and strengthening the defense. But this issue, which is about a distrust of Morgan Johansson for his shortcomings in internal security, has nothing to do with NATO.
Move on Morgan Johansson
He goes on to say that the easiest way to avoid a government crisis – and to avoid Amineh Kakabaveh gaining influence – is to move on to Morgan Johansson.
– That there will be a government crisis is Magdalena Andersson’s own invention and nothing that the opposition has demanded.
Gunnar Strömmer insists that it is the government that must ensure that it has the right number of mandates to get its policy through.
– It is not the opposition’s responsibility to keep track of Magdalena Andersson’s government documents or sort out different relations between different savages.
Mikael Damberg says that talks are underway with Amineh Kakabaveh – as well as everyone in Sweden’s Riksdag.
-I think she basically wants Magdalena Andersson as prime minister. I think she basically does not want chaos, he says.
