Kristersson: Bottleneck revenues will remain in Sweden

"Our right to decide on the bottleneck fees in Sweden is secured. Other countries will not be able to seize them. It is explicitly described," Kristersson said during a break at the meeting.

In writing, the message appears in a sentence in the joint statement adopted by the leaders, which states that there should be a "flexible approach to domestic bottleneck revenues."

There was a proposal that Europe could use 25 percent of all congestion charges. That risk is now gone, Kristersson said.
