The reason Ankarberg Johansson previously referred to is, among other things, the difficult staffing situation in Swedish healthcare. Now the Minister of Health says that the government does not rule out receiving patients from Gaza for care in Sweden, as a complement to care on site.
"This applies to all places in the world that are currently shaken by major humanitarian pressures on the civilian population," writes Acko Ankarberg Johansson in a response to the Green party's spokesperson Daniel Helldén, who recently asked a question about what circumstances are required for the government to reassess its stance.
Ankarberg Johansson adds that the decisive factor now is to "ensure that people get immediate help where they are".
