Kristersson points out that Sweden is a member of NATO, that the fight against inflation has been won, that more and more crimes in gang environments are being cleared up, and that the number of asylum seekers is historically low.
We have firmer ground under our feet.
Kristersson states that we are entering the second half of the term of office and that the results of the government's reform agenda are starting to show.
Sweden has long been getting poorer and more dangerous. Now we have begun the journey to become richer and safer.
Kristersson reminds us, however, that it will take a long time to combat organized crime, turn around school results, build new nuclear power plants, and upgrade roads and railways.
Return migration is stimulated
S-leader Magdalena Andersson believes that the government declaration and Ulf Kristersson were too optimistic. She says that children under 15 are being drawn into crime to a greater extent, that shootings are still occurring in Sweden, and that healthcare is on its knees.
He seemed satisfied in a way that I think many in Sweden do not recognize, she says.
Åkesson: "Need to deliver"
In the government declaration, it is mentioned that voluntary return migration should be strongly stimulated and increased, despite a recent investigation concluding that no country in Europe has succeeded in doing so.
In the autumn, a new list will be presented of disadvantaged areas, which will have a broader focus than the police's situation report on vulnerable areas, and the government also wants to significantly toughen penalties for young people who commit crimes.
A proposal to make it more difficult to launder money through so-called hawala transactions is also announced.
And according to SD-leader Jimmie Åkesson, the two most important areas that the Tidö parties need to get to grips with are migration and crime.
This is what we need to deliver on, says Åkesson.
2.3 percent to defense
Other issues that were raised included defense and the war in Ukraine. In the autumn, a proposal will be presented on the upgrading of defense 2025-2030. Next year, Sweden will allocate over 2.3 percent of GDP to military defense, Kristersson states.
Sweden will support Ukraine as long as necessary. Ukraine's cause is also ours, says Kristersson to long and loud applause.
He concludes the government declaration with:
Tomorrow will be a better day.
