Donald Trump right on immigration, gang violence, Sweden finds - Washington Times
Swedenâs prime minister, who criticized President Trump last year for blaming Swedish violence on Muslim refugees, said Tuesday that heâs cracking down on immigration and gang violence to make Sweden great again.
At a White House news conference with Mr. Trump at his side, Prime Minister Stefan LĂśfven spoke of his own Trump-like agenda of implementing tougher laws on immigration and crime, and of spending more money on law enforcement.
âWe have our share of domestic challenges, no doubt about that,â Mr. Lofven said. âWe are dealing with it every day, allocating more resources to the police, more resources to the security police, tougher laws on crime, tougher laws on terrorism.â
Not only that, he said Swedenâs crackdown on immigration and gangs is working.
âWe can see some results now in our three major cities, decrease in shootings because weâre attacking the organized crime very tough,â the prime minister said. âAnd weâll keep on doing that. There is no space in Sweden for organized crime. They decrease freedom for ordinary people.â
It sounded very much like Mr. Trumpâs rhetoric against the MS-13 gang members that he seeks to deport in larger numbers, and his policies to limit migration from certain Muslim-majority countries until better screening is in place to weed out potential terrorists.
The president, who enjoys being right as much as anyone, told the audience in the East Room that he had been correct about Sweden all along.
âCertainly you have a problem with immigration, itâs caused problems in Sweden,â Mr. Trump told a Swedish journalist. âI was one of the first ones to say it. I took a little heat, but that was OK. I proved to be right. But you do have a problem. I know the problem will slowly disappear, hopefully rapidly disappear.â...
