Center-Right Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has finally declared a drastic shift in the immigration policy of a once-peaceful country that has become a haven for the most violent foreign gangs, due to its infamous open-door welcome at the height of the migration crisis that has continued since 2015. Kristersson announced that Sweden is changing its “migration policy to the EU’s strictest.” The Sweden Democrats were handed a virtual no-win predicament when they joined the government in 2022, caused by the previous Socialist Democratic Party. “Almost all 5,000 gang members” in Sweden are migrants, and their proliferation is threatening to get worse without state intervention.
Here’s a brief picture of how Sweden’s open-door policy is now haunting the country:
That Sweden has become one of Europe’s most violent countries has finally attracted international attention. The French newspaper Le Monde lamented “Sweden’s powerlessness in the face of organized violence.” The paper quoted Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson from the Moderate Party stating that the situation is “uncontrollable” and may “get worse before it gets better.” Kristersson labelled the dozens of criminal gangs in Sweden “domestic terrorists.”
According to the Brookings Institution, Sweden took in the most refugees per capita:
In 2015, Sweden had a record-high of 162,877 applications for asylum, primarily from Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan—or about 1.6 percent of Sweden’s population of 10 million. This would be proportionally equivalent to over five million people applying for asylum in the United States, which in fact only received approximately 83,000 asylum applications that year
Since 2016, police in Sweden admitted losing control of 55 no-go zones. By 2017, Swedish politicians were calling for the army to be deployed to these areas. That same year, Sweden was reportedly on the brink of civil war, as its National Police Chief Dan Eliasson spoke on national television and pleaded for assistance: “Help us, help us! In 2020, Muslim migrant gangs were terrorizing Sweden’s streets with bombings and murders, while the global spotlight on Sweden has been over so-called “Islamophobic” Qur’an burning incidents.
The numbers invading Sweden were unsustainable and led to internal political upheaval from a rightly disgruntled populace, which turned to populist leadership for a sensible solution. This crisis prompted former Prime Minister Stefan Löfven, the leader of the Socialist Democratic Party, to declare in desperation that “Sweden needs a ‘respite’ from the tens of thousands of refugees knocking at its door….announcing tough measures to deter asylum seekers in a sharp reversal of its open-door policy.” Trying to save face, Löfven, who also served as the President of European Socialists, “criticized the EU for failing to agree to spread refugees more evenly around the bloc.” Yet nonetheless, migrants continued to flow into generous Sweden.
By 2018, the center-right leader of the opposition Moderate Party, Ulf Kristersson, called on Löfven to step down. Löfven ultimately resigned in disgrace three years later after doing grave damage to Sweden, and after losing a no confidence vote. But migrant gangs were already entrenched, along with no-go zones. Police Commissioner Erik Nord acknowledged that mass migration was linked to the surge in fatal shootings.
National Police Chief Anders Thornberg now warns that Swedish gangs are growing by 1,000 new recruits a year.
As many as 30,000 people in Sweden are involved in criminal networks, the country’s justice minister said ….describing the figure as “breathtaking” and vowing to introduce new legislation to fight organized crime.
Between January and May 2023 alone, Swedish police recorded, on average, one completed bomb detonation every two days.
Earlier this month, Prime Minister Kristersson “publicly denounced his country’s poor management of immigration”:
Let me be clear: large-scale immigration and poor integration simply do not work. That is why we are now changing the Swedish migration policy to the EU’s strictest.
Failed globalist politicians and their suicidal immigration policies are not the ones facing the inevitable consequences of their own recklessness, and they manage to dodge demands for responsible immigration policies by calling anyone who questions them “racists.” Those same politicians continue to live and retire high on the hog and with personal security.

Trying to close the stable door after the horse has bolted. Got to REVERSE the entire process & Return To Country of Origin. i.e. NOT other European Countries!! N.B.

Agree!

If the idiots in power just would’ve studied Islam for 20% they could’ve avoided the insanity of importing muslims. The only way out to save the country is to deport every single one of them that wants to follow that cult of death
And that goes for Europe and all western countries.

A “reversal of their open-door policy” would be a “deportation policy” where hundreds of people who have no business whatsoever being in Sweden, are deported.
Second best would be a “sponsored immigrant” policy under which all members of parliament, and everyone who works in the public sector – especially the immigration service – has to provide accommodation for a family of Afghans, Somalians etc.
Jean Gledhill says
Well said. Totally agree. ?

I would be afraid to think of what the EU thinks is a strict immigration policy. It seems to be rather lax and liberal, not strict. And heavily in favor of massive Muslim and African migration. But anyway, the Swedes seem like a suicidal nation, Forty years ago I heard a Swede talk about their immigration policy. She seemed to think the Swedes knew it all as far as integration and assimilation are concerned. Of course there are problems in big cities, but there are not many big cities in Sweden. Well, if she believed what she said, she was a fool. Or perhaps her visit to America was financedby an institution that wanted her to talk like that and she knew it wa worse than she claimed.

I’ll believe it when Sweden announces, & then demonstrates, that its policy is identical to Hungary’s & Poland’s. Ditto for Britain

We have been telling you all this for years and years and years so you Swedes and others have NO COMPLAINT just learn to live with them. That was meant to be a joke. Are you laughing?

All those horrendous crimes committed by Muslim migrants reveals their ungratefulness and unthankfulness for letting them enter Sweden to live. This this further exposes the Muslim’s Islamic arrogant contempt for people who are Westerners and Western civilization, Western laws.
This Muslim violence may be yet better explained by one of the fables of Aesop which is entitled THE FARMER AND THE VIPER. So here it is “Once in ancient Greece there was a farmer outside on a very cold winter day walking in if field to make sure that everything is in order and as it should be. The farmer came upon a half-froze viper about to die from the bitter cold. The kind yet foolish farmer took pity on the viper and in an action of kindness put it his is vest jacket to warms and up and thus save its life. The viper warned up revived and then bit farmer through the vest jacket. So the kind but foolish farmer died a slow painful death in awful agony because he felt sorry of the viper and saved it life. The point to this fable is the no amount of kindness will change and vicious and evil nature.
So it is with those Muslim migrants who were allowed to enter Sweden to live . Those violent migrants who are Muslims will not be impress and change because kindness of Westerners. This is because those violent Muslims have that ungrateful dangerous viper nature because of their venomous and violent religion which is Islam.

if its not too late for sweden and it is bount to becoming an islamic country…..
the swedish military is very small and if they have not recruited and have not prepared for a civil war there is chances they will loose it…
that because if the muslim invaders have already stored rifles and weapons a military like the sweedish might loose the war….
its all down to how much weapons and amunition there is stored for the muslims if there is any…
the numbers estimates are not showing the real backlsh of a civil war as the muslims who have entered are far many more than those recorded and the muslims who will join the civil war are far many more than those already classified as members of gangs…
best of luck the sweedish will at lest not surrender…
note that the current government is not just the conservatives but the nationalist party also with half the seats of the government in the parliament…

Remember how Trump was mocked and scoffed at when he spoke about no go zones in Europe. Now France admits to 100 and Sweden to 55 and Sweden is a much smaller country than France in population.

My niece lives in Stockholm with her family. Her husband is Swedish; she’s American and now has dual citizenship. Not once has there been any mention of violence in Sweden between her and her American parents who live in the US. I’m afraid to even broach the subject of violence in Sweden with my niece or my brother; don’t want to ruin their charmed fantasy life. It’s all sunshine and lollipops with vacation trips to the French Alps. My brother and his wife are going to visit them this week to celebrate the 2nd birthday of their first grandchild. My niece and her husband are well off and apparently live in a “safe” upscale area as far as I can tell. I assume they tolerate the violence in Sweden like we tolerate the isolated violence in American cities.
