What did they expect? Malmö is literally one of the most radically leftist cities in not only sweden but probably europe. And they say they dont want to be political so no gaza flags but last year they were on the side of ukraine(dont get me wrong i agree with that) but this year they are "neutral" suddenly? And why was russia banned last year but not israel this year? Both commited/commit war crimes.
