It is neither in line with international law nor a wise political solution, rather it is counterproductive, says Aron Emilsson (SD), chairman of the Riksdag's Foreign Affairs Committee, to Göteborgs-Posten.

The proposal, which Aftonbladet reported on Thursday, was submitted to the EU's budget control committee.

It has been chaotic down there and you have to find a solution that works, said Dick Erixon to Aftonbladet.

But Aron Emilsson says to Göteborgs-Posten that what emerged in Aftonbladet's article is not the party's official stance.

Dick Erixon, as a member of the European Parliament, is not responsible for the party when it comes to foreign and security policy, he continues.
