Ebba Busch is sharply critical of activist Greta Thunberg's relief trip to Gaza. The KD leader does not think it helps the situation.

She has not been involved in highlighting the situation in Gaza. She has made it about herself, she says.

Busch describes it as "horribelt" and is critical of how Greta Thunberg presents the Israeli intervention.

She equates Israel's very humane handling of her with the kidnapping of innocent people by Hamas on October 7. I do not want to give it more attention, Busch says.

Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) says that those who travel to Gaza take significant risks.

One must take responsibility for oneself.

I note that we have had a total travel warning for Gaza for many years, for obvious reasons, he says.

It was the night before Monday that the ship with Greta Thunberg and other activists was boarded by Israel on international waters and taken to the Israeli port city of Ashdod.
