2023 Swedish anti-terrorism bill
Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Swedish anti-terrorism bill of 2023 refers to the anti-terrorism legislation debated by the Swedish parliament.
The new legislation had been first proposed in 2017 following the
YPG and Gülen movement. While the PKK is recognised as a terrorist organisation in both Sweden and Turkey, the Gülen movement is not recognised as a terrorist organisation in Sweden.[3][4][5][6] The Turkish government has since requested the extradition of members of the Gülen movement and the PKK from Finland and Sweden;[7] that the countries stop supporting the Gülen movement, the PKK,[8] and terrorism;[9] and that Finland and Sweden should address Turkish security concerns.[10]
In March 2023 representatives of the Swedish government announced that the government would submit an anti-terrorism bill, partially aimed at addressing Turkish concerns, in the near future, with tentative plans to see the legislation enacted by June.
