Not fair

As a European, I can understand that the Americans are angry with the EU. Although I would rather have seen Swedish Match remain in Swedish ownership, I think it is wrong for the EU to impose punitive taxes on tobacco so close after Philips Morris acquired more than 85% of the shares.

It has long been known that young people's use of white snus is a problem. Proposing sharply increased penalty taxes right now just feels frivolous. Never trust anyone.
