Economy minister announces new petrol prices

Also, fuel prices on motorways and elsewhere will be equated and the government will extend the price cap on blue-dyed diesel to 9.45 kuna per litre for another two weeks, he told the press after a government conference call.

The retail margin stays 0.65 kuna per litre of petrol and diesel, as do excises of 0.80 kuna on petrol and 0.40 kuna on diesel.

"Without these government moves, the price of diesel would have been 15.70 kuna and the price of petrol 14.92 kuna," the minister said.
