Sweden’s parliament elects PM backed for first time by far right

Scrapping the "feminist" part of Sweden's foreign policy will make very little difference in national security realities. There are pressing issues concerning NATO — including complex dynamics with Turkey and Kurdish groups that must be worked out for accession to be successful. By scrapping this label, Sweden's foreign policy remains prioritized but loses the hypocrisy.
It's not surprising that Sweden's far-right government — led by a party formed out of a neo-Nazi movement — is tearing down the nation's groundbreaking foreign policy achievement on gender equity. All the successes this policy has built are being thrown out the window in the name of reactionary conservatism.
