(Local) Sweden’s Social Democrat opposition has demanded the government call an emergency parliamentary meeting over the ongoing Quran-burning protests.
“We are calling for the foreign policy committee to be called to an extra meeting as soon as possible as a result of what is now happening,” the Social Democrats’ foreign policy spokesperson Morgan Johansson said in a statement. “We fully expect that the government will take whatever measures are necessary to protect Swedish lives and the Swedish interests.”
Johansson said it was important that the government lay out for the other parties how it intended to deal with the ongoing disruption caused by the … Quran burnings, both domestically and internationally.
