Dadgostar on Left Party candidates: It's good that they're leaving

"There are 14 people out of over 4,000 part-time politicians who have had to leave and I think it's good that they are leaving. They are deeply unsuitable and cannot represent us," Dadgostar tells SVT.

Several of the eliminated candidates have in various ways praised Hamas, which is designated a terrorist organization, Expressen reports. Some of them have celebrated Hamas's terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, according to the newspaper.
