Swedish PM Andersson says will lead country even if govt budget rejected

Newly appointed Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson said on Wednesday she was prepared to lead the country even if parliament rejects the center-left minority government's budget later in the day in favor of an opposition bill.

"I am of the opinion that it (the opposition budget) as a whole is something I can live with," Andersson told reporters at a news conference.
