The Left Party says Magdalena Andersson has not clearly explained what it must change to enter a government, after the Social Democrat leader publicly confirmed that she was setting conditions.

Deputy leader Ida Gabrielsson told TV4 on Wednesday that the parties needed to discuss what Andersson meant.

Gabrielsson said the Social Democrats had not yet said they could accept a four-party government. In her account, talks therefore had not reached specific measures or compromises the Left Party would need to make.

Andersson declined to disclose her conditions, saying the sensitive discussions should remain private.
