Another Venstre politician, Abid Raja also believes that their party must be open to a broad civic coalition that also includes the Progress Party. Raja, talking to Dagsavisen, called for debate in his party about cooperation with the Progress Party.

Labour Party, on the other hand, expressed disappointment about the Venstre's rapprochement to FrP. Labor Party Secretary Raymond Johansen called the process as the center party’s end.
