The Social Democrats' foreign policy spokesperson Morgan Johansson thinks that Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson's leadership is "leaderless" and wonders what line it actually is that applies in the matter.
The government announced last week that it demands the EU to freeze the trade agreement with Israel to increase the pressure on the country to let in humanitarian aid to Gaza. The decision has been criticized by representatives of The Christian Democrats and The Sweden Democrats.
On Tuesday, CD leader Ebba Busch came out and said that the government's stance on the trade agreement with Israel may be reconsidered, and that it gives too "one-sided focus" on Israel.
Morgan Johansson thinks that this division in the government is serious.
Is it the foreign minister's line that applies?, he says to Expressen.
On Thursday, Johansson submits a request for a special meeting with the government to be held in the Riksdag's Foreign Affairs Committee.
Then parties like The Christian Democrats and The Liberals will have to show their colors in which line they have.
