What happened
Following the election, negotiations are underway between the parties of the Riksdag to form a new government. Party representatives have announced that government formation may take time and that they are in no rush. Meanwhile, young people in Sweden are once again threatened with deportation as political talks continue.
Our analysis
When power is negotiated, politicians have plenty of time. Coffee cups are refilled and schedules extended as the Speaker's talks roll on. But for young new Swedes living with the threat of deportation hanging over them, there is no calm. The issue that was used to win votes in the election campaign has suddenly turned into a secondary matter in the waiting room of government power, where every lost day can decide a person's future in the country.
Explained
Government formation is the process after an election in which the parties of the Riksdag negotiate under the leadership of the Speaker over who will be appointed Prime Minister and form a government.
