Jimmie Åkesson (SD) and Magdalena Andersson (S) debated migration policy and green investments in SVT's Aktuellt. Åkesson argued that the Social Democrats lack credibility in promises of stricter migration.
In the debate Åkesson said Andersson lacks support from the Left Party and the Green Party for a stricter line. He demanded that Sweden should be much less open to asylum seekers. Andersson referred to the migration policy shift in 2016 under the Social Democratic government with the Green Party. She stressed broad parliamentary support for strict policy. The parties also clashed over state investments in green technology. Åkesson urged the government to keep its hands off the projects that he called doomed. Andersson warned that SD's stance risks scaring off investors and leading to lost jobs.
