Reply to comment by alilsus83 in Sweden opens mainland Europe's first spaceport. ESA says it will host, 'Themis', its reusable rocket development initiative there by lughnasadh

No

It helps, but also hinders.

It can make low inclination launches more efficient

It can make high inclination/polar launches more inneficient

Really though rockets are very good nowadays, it will still have its affects but modern launch vehicles have more than enough tollerances to launch from almost anywhere now, its not like the 60's anymore.
