This is therefore images that are quite old, says the Prime Minister to TT in Oslo about the photos of "sensitive character" from a dating site that have now emerged.
They are therefore taken at the latest in 2019. During all these years, different governments have appointed him to different security-classified positions – without knowing about this, without detecting this.
I think this is very serious. It is a system failure somewhere.
Tobias Thyberg has, among other things, been an ambassador in Ukraine. He left the role as national security adviser last week, after just a few hours, since the media got knowledge of the photos.
Kristersson emphasizes that it is therefore about "information that he has withheld", but also questions the routines.
One must ask oneself, are our security talks and our reviews in the government since long ago, are they good enough to detect things?
We will absolutely review this.
But the Prime Minister also wonders why the images leak just when Thyberg got a so high-profile job.
Someone has decided that just now the information should come out. It also raises one or two questions. Why should it come out just now?
