Foreign Relations?

    Does the party have any relations or connections with parties in other countries? I'm wondering because Wikipedia says The Left Party of Sweden and the Socialist Party have a connection, and there have been some articles about Die Linke, I have not read yet, in the Socialist Magazine.

    The primary reason that the Left Party and the SP-USA have connections is because a former Left Party MEP (Jonas Sjöstedt) was a member of the Socialist Party when living in the US for a few years. In terms of other international guests we've hosted at events and such, there's been people from the SAC in Sweden, Enhedslisten and the Socialist Youth Front in Denmark, and I believe an MEP from the Dutch Socialist Party. So it's a bit of a diverse ideological swing of things. Personally, I'm in contact with people from the newly-formed Socialist Party of Ontario, and trying to develop a relationship there.

    No, Kartika Liotard. But according to Wikipedia she left the SP last year.

    Do you happen to know why she left?

    There were some internal conflicts as far as I'm aware, but I don't know the juicy stuff. Anyway, she is pretty ok.
