The red green cooperation will face its first test on September 28, when parliament meets to elect a new speaker, SVT political commentator Mats Knutson writes in an analysis.

The key question is whether the red green parties can agree on a joint candidate. The outcome will provide an early test of Social Democratic leader Magdalena Andersson’s ability to negotiate as the parties consider the formation of a government.
