France, Sweden has today voiced its disagreement with the European Union's stance on discrimination against palm oil. Swedish Ambassador To Malaysia, Dag Juhlin-Dannfelt said Sweden does not support any discriminatory regime on the use of palm oil in biofuels by the European Union from 2021. The Swedish Ambassador was speaking at the announcement on the Sweden-Southeast Asia business summit. He added that according to the EU's parliment law, before any resolution becomes a law, it has to get the approval of the EU's council of Ministers which he forsees will take some time to be implemented. Meanwhile, Malaysia would hold a palm oil negotiation mission to Europe mid of February following the EU proposal. (Soundbite Of Dag Juhlin-Dannfelt / Swedish Ambassador To Malaysia.)
