Stockholm-Sana
Swedish Prime Minister-elect Magdalena Andersson announced her resignation tonight, hours after her appointment by Parliament, as a result of her failure to pass the budget bill and the withdrawal of the Green Party from the government coalition.
Reuters quoted Anderson, a member of the Social Democratic Party, as saying in statements to reporters that “there is a constitutional custom that any coalition government should resign in the event that a party withdraws from it,” stressing that she does not want to head a government whose legitimacy is challenged, and she hopes that it will be re-elected at a time. later.
Earlier today, the Swedish parliament elected Andersen as prime minister to be the first woman to hold this position, after Lofven resigned from the posts of leader of the Social Democrats and prime minister in early November after seven years in power.
