Erik Ullenhag withdraws from the battle, Sabuni alone candidate

Nyamko Sabuni and Erik Ullenhag.

Erik Ullenhag withdraws from the fight to become the new Liberal party leader, he writes in a debate article on Aftonbladet.

However, after the unions, municipal associations, side organizations and members have said their own in a democratic process, I realize that there is not enough strong support for the idea that I had for our party, he writes on the newspaper's debate page.

Erik Ullenhag justifies the decision with the risk that the party is further split.
