- We need a rent break, says party leader Nooshi Dadgostar at a press conference with economic policy spokesperson, Ida Gabrielsson.
It is one of our absolute top priorities, adds Gabrielsson.
The party wants to see a stopgap law to freeze rents at today's level and let the parties, the Property Owners and the Tenants' Association, sit down to change the rules of rent negotiations. In parallel, an investigation should be appointed, which, according to Dadgostar, creates pressure on the parties to come to an agreement.
This can help them get into the negotiation room, she says.
The possibility of having an arbitrator take over the rental negotiations has been abused by the property owners, according to V.
