Previously, the exact distribution between the countries has been unknown. But recently came the news about how much Sweden gets.  

"Our envelope is 3.7 billion euros," the government wrote in a comment to SVT.

How the money is to be used is up to the countries to decide, but they must meet certain criteria.

The instructions state that the funds will go to, among other things, climate change and digitalisation, but the possibilities of using the money are quite broad as long as they contribute to our economic recovery, the government continues.

However, the countries in the south, such as Italy, France and Spain, will receive significantly more than Sweden.

- Europe faces many challenges that we need to tackle together. With the recovery package, we are also together better equipped to handle the corona crisis and the economic consequences, said Prime Minister Stefan Löfven (S) at a press conference earlier today.

The EU will take out loans to finance the support package, which will then be distributed to the countries in the form of loans and grants. The idea is that it is the EU as a whole, including Sweden, that will repay the loans for a maximum of 30 years starting in 2028.

What will it cost the Swedish treasury per year?

- Once it is paid back, depending on exchange rates, approximately SEK 4-5 billion, said Stefan Löfven.
