Strasbourg, den 18. juni 2026. Europa-Parlamentet afvist<\/a> Europa-Kommissionens plan om at fasts\u00e6tte minimumsafgiftssatser p\u00e5 vapes, nikotinposer og produkter, der ikke br\u00e6nder varme. I to fortl\u00f8bende afstemninger<\/a> Vedr\u00f8rende revisionen af tobaksafgiftsdirektivet (TED) afviste MEP'erne f\u00f8rst ECON-udvalgets \u00e6ndrede forslag rapport<\/a>, og afviste derefter Kommissionens forslag<\/a> direkte.<\/p>\n

ECON-rapporten, der er forfattet af det tjekkiske medlem af Europa-Parlamentet, Tom\u00e1\u0161 Kub\u00edn, som foreslog lavere punktafgifter end Kommissionens oprindelige forslag og nedf\u00e6ldede princippet om "mindre skade, lavere skat", blev forkastet med den mindste stemmemargin: 308 for, 320 imod. Kommissionens oprindelige forslag, der blev sat til afstemning umiddelbart efter, blev forkastet med et overv\u00e6ldende flertal p\u00e5 439 stemmer mod 181.<\/p>\n

Michael Landl, direkt\u00f8r for World Vapers' Alliance, sagde: \u201c"Denne afstemning er en klar afvisning af Europa-Kommissionens misforst\u00e5ede fors\u00f8g p\u00e5 at p\u00e5l\u00e6gge h\u00f8jere afgifter p\u00e5 nikotinprodukter med reduceret risiko. H\u00f8jere afgifter p\u00e5 vapes, nikotinposer og produkter, der ikke varmes op, ville g\u00f8re det sv\u00e6rere for millioner af europ\u00e6ere at skifte fra at ryge. Beskatning b\u00f8r afspejle den relative risiko og tilskynde rygere til at skifte til mindre skadelige alternativer."\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Afvisningen af Kubins ECON-rapport blev drevet af en modstridende koalition. Rassemblement National (RN), den st\u00f8rste delegation inden for Kubins egen gruppe Patriots for Europe, stillede sig p\u00e5 socialisters og liberales side for at afvise Kubins rapport. Jordan Bardella, RN-formand og PfE-gruppeleder, havde annonceret<\/a> beslutningen dagen f\u00f8r, hvori det eksplicit blev n\u00e6vnt modstand mod ny beskatning af vaping-produkter.<\/p>\n

\u201c"Europa-Parlamentet har vist, at det er langt t\u00e6ttere p\u00e5 en risikobaseret tilgang til nikotinregulering end Europa-Kommissionen. Der var et klart flertal imod at indf\u00f8re nye EU-d\u00e6kkende minimumsafgifter p\u00e5 produkter med reduceret risiko, og medlemslandene b\u00f8r tage dette budskab til efterretning, n\u00e5r forhandlingerne skrider frem. Det endelige direktiv skal afspejle risiko, ikke indt\u00e6gtsm\u00e5l."\u201d<\/em><\/strong> tilf\u00f8jede Landl.<\/p>\n

N\u00e5r R\u00e5dets forhandlinger genoptages i juli under det irske formandskab, vil World Vapers' Alliance fortsat samarbejde med medlemsstater, medlemmer af Europa-Parlamentet og EU-institutioner for at sikre, at det endelige direktiv om punktafgifter p\u00e5 tobak st\u00f8tter skadesreduktion og beskytter adgangen til overkommelige alternativer til rygning for millioner af europ\u00e6iske borgere.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Strasbourg, 18 June 2026. The European Parliament rejected the European Commission\u2019s plan to establish minimum excise tax rates on vapes, nicotine pouches and heat-not-burn products.
