Advantage Kristersson or a snap election, SVT analysis says
Ulf Kristersson holds the mandate to try to form a government until 10 November. Social Democrat leader Magdalena Andersson is working in parallel on her own alternative with the Centre Party and the Greens, without the Left Party, SVT political commentator Mats Knutson writes, adding that the Centre is never expected to accept the Left's demand for ministerial posts. If that deadlock holds, Knutson points to two outcomes: Kristersson becomes prime minister again, or Sweden goes to a new election.
