Kristersson on Jomshof: Does not affect the cooperation

That Richard Jomshof (SD) is suspected of incitement to racial hatred and has stepped down as chairman of the Justice Committee does not affect the cooperation between the government and SD. No. We are following our program, says the Prime Minister to TT.

Ulf Kristersson thinks, on the other hand, that it is good that Jomshof has stepped aside.

During an ongoing legal process, it is wise to step aside.

It is as he himself says, it would shift the focus from the important work there.

Richard Jomshof is summoned to an interrogation on Tuesday, suspected of incitement to racial hatred, after sharing two images on X.

If Kristersson believes that Jomshof is suitable for the post as chairman of the committee, the Prime Minister does not respond.

This is an ongoing legal process, so I will not say anything about it.

Kristersson also does not want to comment on other Sweden Democrats, in support of Jomshof, sharing the image that is the subject of the investigation further on social media.

All that is subject to a legal process, so I have no opinion about it.

Does this affect your cooperation with the Sweden Democrats in any way?

No. We are following our program. We have many important things to do, not least in the Justice Committee, and the important things should not be overshadowed by other legitimate ongoing legal processes.
