Sweden Warns of Potential Jet Fuel Shortage

STOCKHOLM, April ⁠28 (Reuters) – ⁠Sweden is ⁠issuing an early ​warning of a potential ‌shortage of jet ‌fuel ⁠stemming ⁠from the war in the Middle ​East, Energy Minister Ebba Busch ​said on Tuesday.

“This is ⁠based on ⁠the Energy ⁠Agency’s assessment,” ​Busch told a press ​conference.

Sweden ⁠could in a worst case scenario face ⁠rationing of aviation fuel, but the situation ⁠going forward depends to a great degree on how the market adapts, said Energy Agency General ⁠Director Caroline Asserup.
