The background is DN's revelations about the national security adviser Henrik Landerholm having forgotten classified documents at a conference center, his mobile phone at the Hungarian embassy, and a notebook at Swedish Radio after participating in an interview.

He is also said to have handpicked a person for his office without the person being security-cleared for the position.

It is obvious that Ulf Kristersson bears the responsibility for the people working for him, whom he has pointed out himself. He now needs to answer questions about how he will address this situation, says The Left Party leader Nooshi Dadgostar to SR.

Dadgostar does not think that Landerholm can remain as security adviser.

To me, it seems obvious that this is a person who cannot hold this position and role.

Dadgostar asked about Ulf Kristersson's personal responsibility during Wednesday's party leader debate. The Prime Minister then referred to the fact that it concerns two-year-old events, which were handled by the Government Offices' security department.

I have no reason to question their handling of this.
