Kokk was born in Juminda, Estonia and his family fled to Sweden in 1944. For many decades, Kokk was active within the leadership of the Social Democratic Party as an official, starting 1968. He was, amongst other things, chief editor for the party's magazine Aktuellt i Politiken for a few years. In 2000, he left the work in the program commission of the party due to his disagreement with the party's decision to support a Swedish membership in the Eurozone.
