The Swedish government announced plans to abolish the aviation tax starting in July 2025. This tax, introduced in 2018, was aimed at reducing carbon emissions by discouraging air travel.
Regarding the Agenda 2030 global goals, the Swedish government did indeed remove these from their directives earlier this year. This move has been part of a broader shift in their policy approach, focusing more on national priorities.

Earlier this year they scrapped the Agenda 2030 global goals from government directives.
Good things are happening 👍
