STOCKHOLM—Four Swedish parties have agreed on a deal to give Stefan Lofven a second term as prime minister, potentially ending months of political deadlock, the Aftonbladet newspaper reported on Jan. 11, citing unnamed sources.
Lofven’s Social Democrats, as well as the Centre, Liberal and Green parties, all declined to comment on the report. And a deal could still be blocked by each party’s executive group, who have the final say—some Liberal and Centre lawmakers have expressed strong doubts about such a partnership.
