Sweden intends to tighten its anti -terrorist legislation by changing the constitution, going towards Turkey in the dispute regarding the conditions of the kingdom entering NATO, Deutsche Welle reports.
In the Swedish parliament, they explained that the relevant changes will “limit the freedom of assembly groups involved in terrorism.” It is expected that the vote on this issue will be held on November 16. If the deputies of the RICSDAG support the necessary amendments, a toughened version of the anti -terrorist legislation in force in its current form since July will enter into force on January 1, 2023.
As experts explain, then in Sweden it will become easier to start affairs against members of the Kurdistan terrorist working party (PKK).
The new Sweden Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson during his visit to Turkey emphasized that his country intends to deal with crime and terrorism.
“A few weeks ago, my government was elected with the mandate to ensure the priority of the law and law and order. This includes the fight against terrorism and terrorist organizations such as PKK,” said Cristerson during a joint press conference with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. – Therefore, I want to assure all the Turks: Sweden will fulfill all its duties to Turkey to protect against terrorist threats, both before its entry into NATO and in the future role of an ally. “
