The Moderates are not backing down from their stricter migration policy despite upcoming demonstrations for a more humane approach. MP Crister Carlsson from Falun stresses the importance of integration. Social Democrat Peter Hultqvist highlights the need for a manageable level.

Demonstrations are planned across Sweden this weekend under the slogan 'For a humane migration policy.' This comes amid ongoing debates on immigration and integration.

From the opposition, Peter Hultqvist (S) weighs in. 'It must be at a level so that we can manage integration at the same time,' he states. These statements reflect differing views in the migration debate, where the balance between humanity and capacity is key.
