Nooshi Dadgostar addresses antisemitism and continues election tour
Vänsterpartiet leader Nooshi Dadgostar has addressed issues regarding antisemitism within her party and outlined her upcoming campaign activities. In an interview with SVT, Dadgostar stated she would be willing to wear a Star of David as a show of support for the Jewish minority in Sweden. She suggested that the party's engagement in the Palestinian issue may have attracted individuals with antisemitic views.
Dadgostar also addressed the recent exclusion of 25 candidates from the party's election lists due to antisemitic remarks and the glorification of terrorism, noting that these individuals could not represent the party.
Separately, Dadgostar is continuing her election tour with scheduled stops in Skara, Skövde, and Gothenburg. Her itinerary includes visiting schools, participating in food festivals, and engaging in door-to-door campaigning in Gothenburg.
