Left Party leader Nooshi Dadgostar has prepared both her party and its voters for a firm demand for ministerial posts, SVT political commentator Elisabeth Marmorstein writes in an analysis.

The party’s position has been strengthened by gaining the most support in the election, which is seen as confirmation that Dadgostar has voters behind her.

However, the situation remains locked. In the end, the outcome may depend on which side has the most to lose.
