Stația de carburanți unde benzina a depășit 10 lei pe litru
Fuel prices have surged, with gasoline exceeding 10 lei per liter and diesel nearing 11 lei. The Ministry of Finance has extended the excise tax cap on diesel until the end of September, which will reduce prices by 85 bani. However, this reduction is overshadowed by previous price hikes. Consumers are feeling the impact, as transportation and food costs are also rising. In Bucharest, gasoline is priced at 9.99 lei and diesel at 10.61 lei per liter. Experts predict continued high prices due to global oil market uncertainties. Transporters are struggling and warn of potential bankruptcies, calling for government support. Overall, fuel prices have increased significantly over the past year, with diesel up 34% and gasoline 25%.
