Several countries want to make the connection between the ETS and the high energy prices. On the contrary, we believe that our dependence on fossil fuels from Russia and the Middle East is the main cause of the high prices,” says EU Minister Jessica Rosencrantz to DN at the summit in Brussels. It is also important for our Swedish companies that have been early adopters of the transition. We were several countries that counterattacked and won the battle. But it will continue to be a contentious issue in the autumn,” says Rosencrantz. #Klimatpolitik #EU #Utsläppshandel (translated)

Samppa Granlund wrote that he estimated the support bubble of the National Coalition Party was about to burst, as the party had shifted towards a more blue-red direction according to him. He believed that the party's decisions relied heavily on ideas borrowed from the Greens and that in Brussels, they were following the left's lead. Granlund also mentioned blue-red lobbyists who had moved from the Social Democratic Party to the National Coalition Party, such as Jungner. According to Granlund, the party's right-leaning views had become scarce and their proponents few. He assessed that the climate debate and the hype around the blue-red alliance were overshadowing this message. He claimed that many were therefore moving to more right-leaning parties, even though the right was a marginal phenomenon in Finland. Granlund described the National Coalition Party as a differently colored social democratic party and said that many were avoiding it because there were no guarantees about the party's future direction. #kokoomus #politiikka #Suomi (translated)
