Annie Marie Therése Lööf is a Swedish politician and lawyer. She was Member of the Riksdag, representing her home constituency of Jönköping County, from 2006 to 2023, and leader of the Centre Party from September 2011 to February 2023.[1] Lööf was Minister for Enterprise from 2011 to 2014.
She attended the 2017 Bilderberg meeting and was a member of the Trilateral Commission.
Career
Lööf was elected leader and party president on 23 September 2011, succeeding Maud Olofsson, at the party congress in Åre. She thus became the Centre Party's youngest-ever party leader.
On 29 September 2011 Lööf succeeded Maud Olofsson as Minister for Business and Enterprise. After the parliamentary election in 2014, Lööf's trust figures raised dramatically[Push polling?]. In 2017, Annie Lööf had the highest trust figures of any major political party leader in Sweden by Swedish voters.[2][3]
Following the inconclusive elections in 2018, the speaker of Sweden’s parliament Andreas Norlén asked Lööf to explore the possibility of forming a new government.[4] Löof subsequently tried to build support for a broad government which excluded the Sweden Democrats and the Left Party and kept intact the centre-right Alliance, a four-party bloc of which the Center is part.[5] She abandoned her bid to form a new government one week later.[6] In January 2019, she eventually led her party to abandon its traditional center-right allies and back Social Democrat leader Stefan Löfven as Prime Minister.[7]
Following the government's defeat in the 2022 general election, in part due to Centre Party losses, Lööf announced her resignation as leader of the Centre Party on 15 September.[8] She was succeeded by Muharrem Demirok on 2 February 2023.[9]
