Context from the article: they're not against the tax, they're against the tax going to the EU as opposed to going to the member states.

There's nothing weird about this situation. Sweden is against the tax going to the EU instead of the members.

Sweden is generally against tax revenue going to the eu institution instead of the member countries themselves. The former is seen as a step toward eu federalization which sweden oppose. They are not against the tax itself.

If Sweden slams the EU - can the EU dunk Sweden in return?
