Sweden's migration minister says he will not resign after it was revealed his teenage son has links to white supremacist groups.
Johan Forssell confirmed on Thursday that the person named by the anti-racism watchdog Expo recently as being a "close relative" of an unnamed minister and "active in the far right" was his 16-year-old son.
Forssell said he had not known about his son's activities until he was contacted by the country's security service a few weeks ago and that he had followed all proper protocol.
"Perhaps many parents can relate to not having a complete picture of what their children are doing on social media," he told Swedish broadcaster TV4.
Forssell's comments came after Expo said last week that the close relative of a government minister had "collaborated" with a member of the neo-Nazi Nordic Resistance Movement (NMR) group.
