Members of the Swedish Parliament, Nadja Awad and Tony Haddou of the Left Party (V), have distanced themselves from video clips showing Hamas flags at a Palestine demonstration, stating they do not support the symbols. Awad clarified her stance on September 22nd, 2025, stating, "There is nothing I want to stand behind, but I am behind the Palestine flag and the Palestinian people." The development emerged as the two MPs shared videos depicting the controversial symbols, prompting a public response to clarify their position. The action signifies a move to separate their support for the Palestinian cause from specific organizational affiliations or symbols displayed during protests. This clarification comes amid ongoing discussions regarding the nature of demonstrations and the symbols used to represent solidarity movements.
