”Had we suspected that the government would be so inconsistent and weak in Middle East policy, we would of course have demanded foreign policy guarantees in the Tidö Agreement as well”, writes Åkesson on X.
Under the post, he attaches a screenshot with the news that the government wants to stop the agreement to increase pressure on Israel to allow emergency aid into Gaza.
Furthermore, Åkesson believes that the blame and responsibility for the war lies with Hamas and that it is dangerous to be unclear about this, as it "means an important propaganda victory for these Islamist forces, whose goal is to annihilate both Israel and the Western world at large".
He writes that this type of reaction is what Hamas is striving for with "their terror and cynical exploitation of the civilian population in Gaza".
"This acquiescence from the Swedish side shows how important it is to have the Sweden Democrats in the government after the election next year".
The Sweden Democrats' Member of Parliament Richard Jomshof also shared a satirical cartoon of Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Saturday morning, where he is likened to a fish that follows the current.
On Thursday, Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard (The Moderate Party) announced that the government wants the EU to freeze the trade agreement with Israel. She then said that the situation in Gaza had deteriorated in July and that Israel is not living up to its commitments.
Then we draw the conclusion that we must put additional pressure, she said.
TT is seeking Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson.
