Moderates seek to bar domestic violence convicts from citizenship

The Moderate Party is campaigning on a proposal to make Swedish citizenship impossible for those convicted of domestic violence.

The Moderate Party wants to disqualify people convicted of crimes in close relationships from obtaining Swedish citizenship.

The rule would apply regardless of time passed since the offense or completion of any sentence.

Migration Minister Johan Forssell said that for the party it is obvious that abusing one's partner means choosing not to remain in Sweden.
