Thanks for your mandate, with that in my back I'm seeking a mandate to become Sweden's Prime Minister, she said to the congress members.

She pointed out in her speech of thanks that the world around us is more uncertain and unpredictable than in a long time and that it poses great demands on politics.

Andersson mentions three principles that will guide her potential government if S wins the election.

Sweden's external and internal security shall be strengthened, community spirit shall increase, and Sweden's prosperity shall grow.

It shall be noticeable in your wallet and in your daily life, says Andersson.

Magdalena Andersson became party leader for the first time in November 2021 and then also Prime Minister. Andersson resigned as Prime Minister after the election defeat in the autumn of 2022.
