Despite humanity's longing for peace and freedom, the world around us is falling apart, says Nooshi Dadgostar from the stage in Almedalen to an audience of about 600 people.
She describes the world leaders' "brutal power struggle" and emphasizes that Sweden has always been a clear voice for human rights.
But I see now how the Swedish voice has fallen silent. Now it has been replaced by a government that bends its back, anxiously falls silent when abuses are committed, and is unwilling to stand up for our values.
Dadgostar wants to restore the Swedish voice in the world.
"New day will dawn"
The new day will dawn and the streets of Kharkiv, Tehran, Tel Aviv, Gaza City will be filled with children's laughter. For the strong's right can never be allowed to triumph, she says.
And when that day comes, I want Sweden to be on the right side of history.
The V leader is also concerned about a Sweden that has become "increasingly fragile" and where trust is being eroded.
For every shooting, every recruitment to a criminal gang, every family that loses a child, society cries out for answers.
Answers that do not come, according to Dadgostar, who does not think the government has succeeded in getting to grips with gang crime.
V believes that welfare must be "decriminalized", and wants to see a stop to starting profit-driven activities in, for example, HVB homes.
Today, children are being recruited into gang crime within HVB homes, according to Nooshi Dadgostar.
We call that a system collapse.
The Right sold out Sweden with open eyes, she says.
Policies of cake and buns must be replaced by action. The iron fist must be put on, the silk gloves taken off. Rogue companies have no business in welfare, and now they must be thrown out.
Critical of billionaires
She also attacks the government's economic policy, which she believes favors the most affluent. According to Dadgostar, Sweden has over 540 billionaires.
More than ever. Such a rich country, but where the money does not stay with those who do the job.
Public poverty seems to have given some people private wealth, she says.
And the richer the rich become, the less they have to pay – for their cleaning, for their gardening, for their kitchen renovations. The state becomes the affluent's own maid, and it is we others who have to pay.
