SUMMARY:Swedish-American Connections with Speaker of Parliament Andreas Norlén
DESCRIPTION:Due to scheduling changes\, this event and the planned visit by Speaker Norlén have been cancelled. \nSweden’s 250-year relationship with the United States has been defined by exchange and collaboration. With close ties to Minnesota\, this partnership has expanded to fit changing dynamics in world affairs through deepening opportunities for cooperation and Sweden’s NATO accession in 2024. \nJoin Global Minnesota\, the Honorary Consulate of Sweden\, and the American Swedish Institute to celebrate this crucial relationship in a fireside chat with Andreas Norlén\, Sweden’s Speaker of Parliament. Don’t miss this engaging dialogue with one of Sweden’s highest elected officials. \nAbout the Speaker: Andreas Norlén\n \nAndreas Norlén was elected Speaker of the Riksdag in 2018 and served as a member of parliament for Östergötland County for the Moderate Party prior to his election as Speaker.

Andreas Norlén believes that it is crucial that the Committee on the Constitution should have broad support in the Riksdag and should remain consistent when there is a change in the political majority. He also worked for broad political consensus in matters affecting the Constitution and preventive measures to counteract violent extremism. \nAndreas Norlén is a Doctor of Laws\, having previously been awarded the degree of Master of Commercial and Business Law at Linköping University and Bachelor of Laws at Stockholm University. \nFor many years\, Andreas Norlén has also been active in the family company\, Kurirengruppen i Sverige AB\, which publishes newspapers.
