Help for those fleeing oppression: City says no.

Åsa Nilsson Söderström (L) proposed that Stockholm establish a competence center against transnational oppression, aimed at individuals who have sought protection in Sweden but face threats and pressure from their home countries. While the center would gather knowledge, provide support, and offer legal aid, the majority of administrations and the City Commissioner believe this falls outside municipal responsibility and is a state affair. However, the Liberals argue it could be organized similarly to the Origo center for honor-related violence.
