Left-Wing Swedish Social Democrat Abandons Attempts to Form Gov’t, Opening Door for Conservatives

Sweden's Social Democratic leader Magdalena Andersson gives a press conference in which she announced that she ended her attempt to form a new government in Sweden, and returned the exploratory mandate to the Speaker of Parliament, on September 28, 2026 in Stockholm, Sweden. Andersson said she had failed to form a government with the three other parties in the left-wing bloc following the country's September 13 general election. The speaker of parliament is expected to task another party leader, likely outgoing Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson -- who currently leads a caretaker government -- with trying to form a new government.
