The Left Party's response to Andersson's C invitation: "Wrong"

On Friday, S-leader Magdalena Andersson and M-leader Ulf Kristersson presented their "total package" - that is, explanations of what policy they want to pursue and how.

In a debate article in Expressen the following day, the S leader describes his preferred government alternative, an S-C-MP government supported by V, as the only one in which both of the Center Party's red lines are maintained.

If C agrees to the option, S is ready to immediately begin negotiations. Even V has "made it clear" that they "stand ready to participate in these negotiations", continues Magdalena Andersson.

Interpreting it as V standing up to support a government in which the party is not included is, however, wrong. Deputy party leader Ida Gabrielsson clarifies this in a comment to DN.

"The interpretation of Magdalena Andersson's article in Expressen that we would be willing to negotiate the government demand is incorrect. However, we are prepared to continue the previous four-party negotiations if C chooses the S option," she writes.

The comment rhymes with what party leader Nooshi Dadgostar said during a press conference on Thursday. The party is willing to negotiate with the other red-greens if the Center chooses that side, but does not intend to let go of the ministerial demand, was the content.

- Our message to the Center Party is that our door is open as usual, said Dadgostar.

In his debate article, the S leader further writes that the only alternative that remains if C rejects the red-green alternative would be a government in which both S and M are included - unless C is to participate in an SD-supported government.

"If such a government alternative does not come to fruition, it is only a government in which both the Social Democrats and the Moderates are included that has the conditions to be able to function in practice, take responsibility for Sweden and not be dependent on the Sweden Democrats," writes Andersson at Expressen.

In an interview with TT, the Social Democrats' economic policy spokesperson Mikael Damberg says at the same time that S will go into "powerful opposition" if C chooses Ulf Kristersson's government alternative. In such a situation, S will join forces with V and MP on the budget.

- A Tidö 2 government will be completely dependent on SD in every single issue, he tells the news agency.
