Den svenske regjeringen la onsdag frem en krisepakke på 17,5 milliarder kroner for å håndtere den globale energikrisen. Med støtte fra Sverigedemokraterna er tiltakene ventet å bli vedtatt av Riksdagen før sommerferien.

Finansminister Elisabeth Svantesson begrunnet pakken med krigen i Ukraina og dens innvirkning på Sveriges økonomi. Hun beskrev situasjonen som den verste globale energikrisen sett så langt.

Pakken inkluderer ytterligere kutt i avgifter på bensin og diesel for en forlenget periode, samt økt strømstøtte til husholdninger. Martin Kinnunen fra Sverigedemokraterna lovet betydelige effekter for husholdninger som er avhengige av bil for å komme seg på jobb.

Miljöpartiets talsperson Daniel Helldén kalte forslaget for bensinpopulisme og tok i stedet til orde for halverte priser på kollektivtransport. Regjeringen har ennå ikke lagt frem alle detaljene i pakken.

Hva folk sier

De første reaksjonene på X til den svenske regjeringens krisepakke på 17,5 milliarder kroner viser en blanding av skepsis knyttet til tidligere påstander om tomme statskasser kontra plutselige utgifter, kritikk av låneopptak og tidspunktet midt i en energikrise, forsvar av tiltak for å støtte husholdninger, samt nøytral gjengivelse av detaljer som drivstoffavgiftskutt.
