The proposal is expected to be officially presented by Swedish Home Affairs Minister Mikael Damberg at a meeting with his EU colleagues in Brussels on Thursday.
"There should be responsibility for human rights violations. If one commits a terrorist attack or war crimes, then there should be justice whenever [the offence] took place," Lofven said in an interview with Sweden's Aftonbladet news outlet.
