The Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson's (M) State Secretary Johan Stuart has called the meeting. Civil servants from several departments are called in for an analysis of the situation and to report on the need for future measures, according to the newspaper.

The purpose of the meeting is both analysis, information sharing, and the need for future measures within the framework of the strategy, says Hanna Strömberg, Deputy Press Secretary to Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, to Aftonbladet.

The meeting is at the civil servant level. Representatives from the Government Offices, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Climate and Enterprise participate. No time for the meeting has been made public.

Corrected: In an earlier version, there was an incorrect statement about who called the meeting.
