Swedish Migration Minister Johan Forssell, a member of the centre-right Moderate Party, is under scrutiny following revelations about his 16-year-old son’s involvement with far-right extremist groups. The story, initially reported by the anti-racist newspaper Expo last week, detailed the teenager’s online activities linked to AktivKlubb, a violent neo-Nazi organization, and collaboration with members of the Nordic Resistance Movement, classified as a terror group by the US in 2024. Forssell confirmed to TV4 that Sweden’s security service, Säpo, contacted him weeks earlier regarding the matter. Despite the allegations, Forssell has stated he has no plans to step down, a position echoed by Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, who expressed continued confidence in his minister. The case has prompted opposition parties to demand Forssell’s appearance before the Riksdag to address potential security risks and the government’s awareness of the situation. The investigation involves assessing whether the minister’s family ties pose a conflict of interest, with no official findings released yet. Public and political attention remains focused on the unfolding inquiry, with additional details expected as hearings progress.
