The Swedish government announced on the 14th that the transport ministers of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden signed a statement during the Nordic Transport Ministers' Meeting held in Gothenburg, Sweden that day, which will strengthen cooperation among Nordic countries and promote the development of commercial electric aviation.

Swedish Minister of Infrastructure and Housing Andreas Carlsson said that electric aviation is very important for the transformation of the aviation industry. It not only reduces carbon emissions, but also, together with other sustainable fuels, accelerates the aviation industry's transition to zero fossil fuels. Nordic countries have the potential to lead in large-scale electric aviation, which can also help improve transportation in remote areas.

At a meeting in Fredrikstad, Norway in November 2022, the Nordic transport ministers pledged to establish Nordic zero-fossil fuel routes by 2030. The commitment includes promoting the development of zero-fossil fuel aviation worldwide and encouraging further cooperation between Nordic countries.

Carlsson said that the Fredrikstad statement, together with this statement, will lay a solid foundation for promoting relevant cooperation in Northern Europe and developing electric flight routes.Xinhua News Agency reporter Chen Jing）
