  "account": "After Sweden's recent election, Social Democrat leader Magdalena Andersson announced on Monday that she is unable to form a government. This came after the Left Party pledged support for a candidate from the Moderate Party to become parliament speaker. Andersson stated that due to this development, along with her recent discussions, she believes there is currently no feasible way to create a government. The centre-left coalition secured 176 seats, while the incumbent right bloc earned 173 seats. The election was perceived as a vote on Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson's plan to form a coalition with the far-right Sweden Democrats. The speaker will now decide who receives the responsibility to negotiate a government, possibly Kristersson.",
  "summary": "Social Democrat leader Magdalena Andersson's decision came after the Left Party said it would support a parliament speaker candidate from the rival Moderate Party.",
