PoliticsSweden’s left-wing opposition leader begins efforts to form government

Parliament Speaker Andreas Norlen has asked centre-left Social Democratic leader Magdalena Andersson to try to form a government after Sweden’s left-wing bloc won 176 of 349 seats in last week’s election. She must unite the Greens, Centre Party and Left Party by September 28, but the Centre Party opposes backing the government and the Left Party is seeking cabinet posts.
