− NEGATIVE20%

While the announced fuel price decrease offers short-term relief, the reductions are modest for gasoline and diesel, with kerosene seeing a more significant drop. The government's adjustment comes amid ongoing economic pressures, and consumers may question whether these changes go far enough to offset previous price hikes. The one-month validity adds uncertainty for long-term planning. Critics might argue that structural reforms are needed to stabilize fuel prices rather than periodic adjustments.
