Domestic. “Extremely serious”, “unacceptable” and the like were the reactions when a politician from the Left Party stated that she was open to peace negotiations in Ukraine.

The incident took place during a debate at Kulturhuset in Stockholm before the EU elections.
Marta Aguirre, who is the fourth name on the Left Party's list, suddenly and unexpectedly announced that peace could be an option in Ukraine.
– We must stop the war by all means. We have to get Russia to sit down and negotiate what it will be like after the war, she said.
– It is extremely tragic that the idea of peace is dead in this panel.
She continues:
– I think it should be ensured that all paths to peace and an end to the killing are assessed.
The speech was interrupted by horrified exclamations from other politicians.
– My God! a person is heard exclaiming.
The moderate EU parliamentarian Tomas Tobé said he hoped it was all “a mistake”.
– It is extremely serious if we now have a Swedish party in Sweden that says we should have peace negotiations with Putin , he thundered.
The Liberals' Karin Karlsbro reacts strongly to the statement.
– It is unimaginable, what is being said. I am shocked by what you are saying from the Left Party. That we should negotiate with Putin, she tells Aftonbladet.
This is completely unacceptable. This is thus a top candidate for the Left Party. @jsjostedt previous attempt to hide how the left group in the EP operates exactly this no longer holds. pic.twitter.com/X9Ou1KONx3

Yes let it sink in, because it is no small matter. Here I explain why the issue of Ukraine is the freedom issue of our time https://t.co/F7FWKXBnAo https://t.co/UQ3si6vYlW

Very good that Tomas Tobe directly marked against The Putinist from the Left Party. https://t.co/yoJSZASpQR
