Several party leaders want to stop Swedish aid to Palestine
Development assistance to Palestine should be stopped, the government parties and the Sweden Democrats said in a televised party leader debate on Sunday.
According to Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson of the Moderates, the issue is already under review by the government.
”We cannot support an authority that glorifies murder, that glorifies terrorist acts,” Liberal leader Johan Pehrson told news agency TT on his way into SVT's debate.
