Swedish Speaker Andreas Norlén announced a vote of confidence in the Riksdag for Magdalena Andersson's Social Democratic single-party government, scheduled for Thursday at noon. The vote follows the formation of a minority government, and its outcome will determine whether Andersson can continue as Prime Minister. This is a routine parliamentary procedure but carries political significance given the narrow support base.

The exact outcome of the vote and subsequent government dynamics remain uncertain.
