HWL wrote that the EU, despite talk of support, had set a record in imports of Russian LNG during January–September 2026, with 12.18 million tons, an increase of 9.5 percent. According to HWL, Russia still accounted for over 17 percent of the EU's LNG imports, while billion amounts went directly to Russia. HWL compared this to how Trump was now portrayed as the villain in the media and questioned how that could be. #EU #Ryssland #LNG (translated)

Ida Gabrielsson argued that the government formation should be based on the fact that S, V, MP, and C had campaigned for a change of power and had Magdalena Andersson as a common candidate for prime minister. She wrote that C could not count in parties that did not support Andersson and at the same time demand influence based on their mandates. According to Gabrielsson, voters had given C 7 percent and V 8.4 percent, and V would not accept C pursuing right-wing policies with the support of V's mandate. Gabrielsson stated that C could seek support from Ulf Kristersson or try to get KD and L to switch sides. If that did not happen, C needed to negotiate with S, V, and MP to get a majority behind Andersson, according to her. She wrote that V was willing to compromise, but that the parties supporting a prime minister candidate must also be able to accept each other as a government basis. She criticized C’s growth proposals, including continued privatization of the Employment Service and permanent tax subsidies to cleaning companies and large restaurant chains. Gabrielsson claimed that the Economic Institute, the Fiscal Policy Council, and others had assessed the proposals as ineffective, expensive, and ineffective in creating jobs. She also wrote that the proposals would be financed through cuts to unemployment benefits and sick pay as well as cuts in welfare. Gabrielsson asserted that the most voters preferred a red-green government, followed by the Tidö alternative, while C's centrist alternative lagged far behind. She wrote that more people had voted for S, V, and MP than for the previous Alliance if SD was excluded. Finally, she urged C to first clarify its political direction and implied that the party needed to choose a side if it could not find a centrist solution. #Regering #Sverige #Politik (translated)

Kristersson: Vi beklagar Trumps diesel-uppgörelse

Ulf Kristersson wrote that Sweden had stood by Ukraine's side since February 24, 2022, and would continue to do so as long as it was necessary. He called for increased pressure on Russia and stronger support for Ukraine. Kristersson lamented the U.S. agreement with Russia regarding diesel supplies and stated that energy revenues were central to the Russian war chest. He indicated that the EU would on Monday adopt its most comprehensive sanctions package to date, with 1,600 sanctions listings targeting the Russian military-industrial complex. He urged more countries to counter the Russian shadow fleet and eventually use frozen Russian assets for the benefit of Ukraine. He also emphasized the need for close coordination within the EU and with the U.S., the U.K., and other international partners. According to Kristersson, the broad political support and public engagement for Ukraine in Sweden were a strength, and Ukraine's freedom and sovereignty remained Sweden's top foreign policy priority. #Ukraina #Sverige #Ryssland (translated)

Marcus Adriano Birro remembers how in 1997, after being selected for a six-month project at Swedish Radio P3, he traveled to Stockholm for radio training together with 24 other young people. On the train, he met Sladjan Osmanagic. Birro recounted that they started talking after Sladjan heard music from The Jesus and Mary Chain that Birro was playing. They became close friends during the training in Stockholm and Gysinge, Birro wrote, and then continued to work together at Swedish Radio in Gothenburg. Sladjan initially worked on Musikjournalen and later became nationally known through Rally in P3. Birro also remembered their long conversations about football and Sladjan's love for Italian football. Birro wrote that Sladjan later invited him to Svenska Fans and supported his way into sports journalism. After the news of Sladjan's death, Birro described him as both uncompromising and warm, expressing sorrow over losing a friend. He also sent love and care to Sladjan's loved ones and wrote that he would raise a glass to his memory. #vänskap #SverigesRadio #fotboll (translated)
