-- ブルームバーグ通信は火曜日、ポルトガルの財務大臣の発言を引用し、イラン内戦勃発後の消費者と企業へのコスト高騰の影響を緩和するため、ポルトガルがエネルギー企業への超過利益税導入案を進める方針だと報じた。 ジョアキン・ミランダ・サルメント財務大臣は、エネルギー企業の利益に対するこの課税案は、2022年のエネルギー危機時に実施された措置をモデルにするものだと述べた。 「2022年に採択された措置を微調整・改善し、近いうちに議会に提案を提出する」とサルメント大臣は述べたと伝えられている。 ポルトガル財務省は、MTニュースワイヤーズのコメント要請にすぐには応じなかった。 ポルトガルは、ドイツやスペインを含むEU加盟国グループの一員として、先月欧州委員会に宛てた書簡で、エネルギー企業の利益に対する超過利益税の導入を求めた。 サルメント氏は、署名国は政策対応を調整し、他の加盟国にもこのイニシアチブへの参加を呼びかける意向だと述べた。 「2022年に採択された措置を微調整・改善し、近い将来、欧州議会に提案を提出する予定だ」と同氏は語った。 欧州委員会はこうした措置に関する最終決定を各加盟国に委ねる意向を示しているものの、ポルトガルとその同盟国は、EU全体で各国の戦略を整合させる枠組みを求めている。 中東危機が続く中、ホルムズ海峡を経由する船舶の航行がほぼ停止し、石油と液化天然ガスの重要な供給ルートが寸断されたため、世界のエネルギー価格は過去最高値にまで高騰している。 (マーケットチャッターのニュースは、世界中の市場専門家との会話に基づいています。この情報は信頼できる情報源に基づいていると考えられますが、噂や憶測が含まれている可能性があります。正確性は保証されません。)
