CULTURE NEWS. Just like her social democratic predecessor, the new culture minister Parisa Liljestrand (M) does not want to give any examples of what Swedish culture is.

In an interview with Expressen, Parisa Liljestrand is pressed more than five times to define what Swedish culture is.

However, she only comes up with vague liberal platitudes about "openness" and the "democratic values".

Expressen's Anna Gullberg then asks Parisa Liljestrand - who is an immigrant from Iran - to define Persian culture. Then it goes better.

- There is a lot of singing, poetry, verse - it was important in my family when I was growing up. Music has had enormous importance, and ancient poets. One of my absolute favorite poets is, for example, Rumi, says the Minister of Culture.

Parisa Liljestrands has taken over the role of Swedish culture minister from Jeanette Gustafsdotter (S), who herself refused to answer whether any Swedish culture exists at all.

- Kebab pizza, Zlatan and Melodifestivalen, Gustafsdotter finally answered after being pressed for a long time on the issue in the Riksdag.
