29 March: Civil Rights Defenders, Abdi Hassan and Jenny Nguyen, on Tidö Agreement. Civil Rights Defenders has written a review of the Tidö-agreement:
"Civil Rights Defenders has reviewed the cooperation agreement, known as the "Tidö Agreement" or “agreement”, which was presented by the Moderate Party, the Christian Democrats, the Liberals, and the Sweden Democrats on 14 October 2022. The review is done from a rights-based perspective, and our assessment highlights the parts of the agreement which are not in line with the protective measures of freedoms and rights in Sweden. We have primarily reviewed the areas of criminal policy, migration policy and the rule of law. Other relevant areas are also included."
