The X user sparbuchfeinde wrote that the abolition of inheritance tax in Sweden is one of the best-studied tax reforms in the world. State tax revenues were higher afterwards than before, and German economists knew that, he claimed. At the same time, according to his portrayal, they considered who financed their institutes and provided them with reach, significance, and invitations to public broadcasting. Leftist parties like the SPD relied on the narrative that the rich did not pay taxes. The envy stirred up by this currently secures their political survival, wrote sparbuchfeinde. #Erbschaftsteuer #Steuern #Ökonomie (translated)

BrennpunktUA referred to the visit of German Chancellor Merz to Kyiv and wrote that, according to DW, Zelensky had promised the delivery of long-range weapons. At the same time, ERR reported on a new Swedish concept for air force operations in the event of a Russian attack, which envisages offensive operations and attacks deep in Russian territory. A central element would be JAS-39 Gripen fighter jets equipped with German Taurus cruise missiles with a range of up to 500 kilometers. Sweden would deliver the first Gripen versions C and D to Ukraine at the beginning of 2027, BrennpunktUA wrote. Sweden itself currently does not use Taurus, although Saab has been involved in their development and production. The first successful test launch only took place in August 2026; the missile is intended to be integrated into Gripen versions C, D, and E. BrennpunktUA noted that Sweden would continue to use the Gripen C and D despite the transfer to Ukraine. With this, Ukraine could have a type of fighter jet capable of deploying the Taurus for the first time starting in early 2027. The author did not rule out that the German government might be considering Taurus deliveries to Ukraine behind the scenes, even though it remains cautious about explicitly naming the types of weapons supplied. The announced integration of the Taurus into Gripen C and D caught his attention in light of reports about German long-range weapons deliveries. #UkrainischeKrise #Luftwaffe #Kampfflugzeuge (translated)

In Sweden, the idea of green steel is imploding. Green steel manufacturer Stegra needs billions, and the CEO is leaving. #Stegra #GreenSteel #Sweden #Industry Billion demand: Stegra is building a large plant for green steel in Boden, northern Sweden, where hydrogen and renewable electricity are supposed to significantly reduce CO2 emissions. According to Affärsvärlden, the project now requires at least another 10 billion Swedish kronor, and Henrik Henriksson is stepping down as CEO. Financing: On January 9, 2025, Henriksson stated that Stegra was fully financed. On July 22, 2025, he said the company had the necessary liquidity. Affärsvärlden is now drawing clear parallels to the failed Swedish battery manufacturer Northvolt. The additional billion demand shows the financial and operational pressure one of the largest European projects for green steel is currently facing. Thank you for this important note!
