煙草在線(xiàn)據(jù)路透社報(bào)道編譯　　瑞典火柴公司攻擊報(bào)道的歐洲進(jìn)一步對(duì)袋裝煙草即鼻煙立法，以嘗試間接禁止產(chǎn)品的計(jì)劃。

　　《每日新聞》援引所謂的由歐盟委員會(huì)起草的立法草案稱(chēng)，希望限制在鼻煙中使用香料。鼻煙仍然是在瑞典流行的一種嚼煙。

　　瑞典火柴的發(fā)言人約翰·韋德伯格說(shuō)，他沒(méi)有看到新歐盟委員會(huì)的提議，但是他說(shuō)，如果該報(bào)告是準(zhǔn)確的，這表明歐盟旨在通過(guò)不當(dāng)途徑禁止鼻煙，該產(chǎn)品已被禁止在歐洲其他地方銷(xiāo)售。

　　“名義上允許瑞典例外(豁免禁令)，但是通過(guò)法律使制造業(yè)成為不可能，只能被解釋為一種試圖在瑞典禁止鼻煙的方法，”他說(shuō)。

　　韋德伯格說(shuō)，禁止或限制使用不同的香味，意味著瑞典火柴不能以它期望的方式生產(chǎn)鼻煙，即以最適合消費(fèi)者的方式生產(chǎn)。

　　該報(bào)稱(chēng)，歐盟旨在限制如薄荷、咖啡和香草等香料在鼻煙中的使用，使這種產(chǎn)品對(duì)年輕人的吸引力更低。

　　該報(bào)告稱(chēng)，提議的法案將允許國(guó)家監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)來(lái)決定香味是否太濃了，但是如果必要的話(huà)會(huì)允許歐盟委員會(huì)介入。

　　12月5日，截止格林威治時(shí)間11:30，瑞典火柴公司的股價(jià)下滑了2.7%，而基準(zhǔn)斯德哥爾摩指數(shù)上漲了0.4%。

Swedish Match Attacks Reported EU Plan for Key Tobacco Products

　　Swedish Match AB has attacked reported European plans to further legislate on tobacco pouches known as snus as an indirect attempt to ban the products.

　　Newspaper Dagens Nyheter quoted what it said was a draft of legislation by the Commission which said it wanted to restrict the use of flavourings in snus, a form of chewing tobacco still popular in Sweden.

　　Swedish Match spokesman Johan Wredberg said he had not seen the new EU Commission proposal, but said that if the report was accurate it showed the EU aimed to ban snus - whose sale is already blocked elsewhere in Europe - by the back door.

　　"To allow Sweden's exception (from the ban) on paper, but make manufacturing impossible via law, can only be interpreted as a way also to try to ban snus in Sweden," he said.

　　Wredberg said banning or restricting the use of flavours would mean Swedish Match could not produce snus the way it wanted to and in a way which was best for consumers.

　　The newspaper said the EU aimed to limit the use of flavourings such as mint, coffee and vanilla in snus to make the product less attractive to young people.

　　The proposed law would allow national regulators to decide if flavourings were too high, but would allow the Commission to intervene if necessary, the report said.

　　Swedish Match shares were down 2.7 percent by 1130 GMT, while the benchmark Stockholm index was up 0.4 percent. Enditem
