SVT questions Ulf Kristersson in election interview

Sweden’s Prime Minister and Moderate Party leader Ulf Kristersson was questioned in his hometown of Strängnäs in an election programme published by SVT.

SVT’s five-minute edition presents highlights from the interview. A full version of the programme, featuring questions from Camilla Kvartoft and Anders Holmberg, is also listed as 59 minutes long.

In a separate analysis, SVT domestic politics commentator Mats Knutson said a split between the Christian Democrats and the Sweden Democrats had put pressure on Kristersson. The issue of forming a government has long been a strong point for the prime minister, according to the analysis.
