The S-leader Magdalena Andersson urges Kristersson and the government to work hard to establish good relations and make contacts with Trump and his colleagues.

Now that the American people have made their choice, it's about the Swedish government working hard to establish good relations with those who can get important roles in Trump's administration, she says to TT.

Andersson was herself the Swedish Finance Minister the last time Trump was president in 2016-2020.

We worked hard with the American Finance Department at that time as well. Sweden has had good relations with the USA regardless of who was president.

According to Andersson, it's about getting as many people as possible in Washington to see that there is also a value for the USA that Nato stands strong, that we have a safe and secure Europe and that Putin doesn't win in Ukraine.

SD's Jimmie Åkesson thinks that the election result is a "message of strength" for the Western world. KD-leader, Energy and Business Minister Ebba Busch (KD) "looks forward to a good and close cooperation with the coming administration".
