Tidö parties open to halting teenage deportations

Àwòrán tí AI ṣe

The Tidö parties are opening up to letting teenagers with final expulsion decisions stay in Sweden. Migration Minister Johan Forssell and SD leader Jimmie Åkesson have signaled support for a temporary pause.

The Tidö parties had previously paused teenage deportations until new legislation is in place. However, decisions that have already gained legal force have not been covered by the pause.

SD leader Jimmie Åkesson says he has no problem with the Swedish Migration Agency also stopping the enforcement of expulsions. He wants to wait until new legislation is ready.

Rural Affairs Minister Peter Kullgren (KD) notes that it feels good if more people are allowed to stay. He adds that it does not feel good in the heart to see the consequences of the previous legislation.

Migration Minister Johan Forssell announced already in March that a referral to the Council on Legislation regarding teenage deportations will be ready by May at the latest. Work is ongoing according to Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson.

Sentiments mix skepticism about motives, concerns over family splits, and references to public opinion polls against deporting rooted youth.

Sverigedemokraterna leader Jimmie Åkesson presented several new demands ahead of the autumn election. He rules out cuts to unemployment and sickness benefits and promises expanded dental care support.

The government failed on Monday to pass its bill expanding possibilities to detain children in migration custody. The opposition requested that the proposal be postponed for one year.
