SWEDEN LATEST: THIRD TRY AT NEW GOVERNMENT, SOME WILL WORK WITH SWEDEN DEMOCRATS, OTHERS WON'T

For the third time since elections just over two months ago, an attempt will be made to form a new government this week in Sweden.

The leader of the "Right" bloc Ulf Kristersson is set for his second try.  His Moderate Party with its 70 seats and the Christians Democrats with their 22 seats are proposing a minority government in the 349 seat Parliament (Riksdag).

They are hoping other parties will give support in parliament without joining the government, but the "Left" bloc is opposed along with some of the "Right" parties, the Liberals and Center, if the Sweden Democrats vote to support the government.

The anti-mass immigration Sweden Democrats hold the balance of power in the parliament between the "Left" and "Right" blocs.

Their support would also be dependent on the Kristersson government adopting new immigration policies to restrict the mass influx of migrants into the county.

A crucial vote is expected Wednesday.
