But the Swedish government is taking blame for local shutdowns. The previous day her boss (PM) said so. The 4th paragraph reads:
"“I realise that nobody is happy when I say that ‘if we hadn't shut down half of nuclear power, we wouldn't have these problems’. But it's true and it needs to be said.”, Kristersson said, referring to the previous Social Democrat-Greens coalition closing several nuclear reactors between 2019 and 2020 as part of a policy shift towards greater reliance on renewable energy sources."
The Swedish Green coalition before them also did shutdowns like the German greens did. And now they have to suffer the consequences.
Note that a lot of people are very shortsighted and might think "energy prices were better with the previous greens/labour/etc". They need to be reminded the causes of the crisis.
