Domestic. There was no moratorium on new citizenships. Instead, the Tidö parties will now try to “delay” applications for new citizenships in a bureaucratic way, reports TV4 News.
The Tidö government’s new law on citizenship is expected to come into force only in the 2026 election year, after a multi-year investigation.
However, there was no moratorium on new citizenships pending the new legislation. By all accounts, the Sweden Democrats have not even tried to bring about such a thing despite pressure from, among others, party profiler Kent Ekeroth for a long time. This has led to up to 150,000 new citizenships being awarded during the current mandate period.
After the criticism of this, TV4 Nyheterna now reports that Tidöpartierna has an alternative solution.
In order to limit the number of approved citizenship applications in the meantime, the government plans to use bureaucratic methods, including by requiring more extensive security checks via the Swedish Migration Agency.
The Green Party’s migration policy spokesperson Annika Hirvonen criticizes the proposal:
– That one should try to prevent the Migration Agency from making a decision in accordance with the Administrative Act’s six-month deadline. I think that sounds very problematic. The government should not fiddle with its management of authorities, she tells TV4.
