An EU-wide tax hike on tobacco and tobacco products would be “completely unacceptable,” Swedish Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson said, claiming the European Commission is considering proposing the tax revenue go to the EU and not to Sweden.
Sweden is generally against tax revenue going to the eu institution instead of the member countries themselves. The former is seen as a step toward eu federalization which sweden oppose. They are not against the tax itself.
