Emelie Nyman has been elected as the new chairperson for the Centre Party's Youth Association, at an extraordinary national meeting in Uppsala.
I feel very honored, she says to TT.
Emelie Nyman says that she now wants to work to unite the movement.
It has been chaotic. We have an election year in a year and need to be united – a grassroots movement that stands up against illiberal forces, she says.
In the near future, the remaining parts of the board will also be presented, according to a press release from the association.
The outgoing chairperson Caroline von Seth was the one in the party who first demanded the party leader Muharrem Demirok's resignation. She left her post after the uprising initially subsided.
