Even if Swedish Democrat politicians (like the article states) claim that "it's better to help people where they are than to bring them here", their budget proposition included a 47 billion SEK (about 470 million USD) reduction of international aid under a 4 year period. For reference, the total international aids budget for 2015 is 29.5 billion SEK. Nothing they have proposed have made any indications that they have any intentions to provide help to those in need who happen to be far away. It's still true that the debate here is extremely infected and polarized, though.
