Global fuel prices surge amid geopolitical tensions and supply shocks
Global fuel markets are experiencing significant volatility, driven by geopolitical tensions and supply disruptions. In Republika Srpska, fuel prices have risen by an average of 30 fenings per liter over the last month, with experts warning that diesel could reach 3.80 KM per liter due to global oil prices hitting 108 dollars per barrel.
In Europe, the economic impact is substantial, with countries facing nearly €41 billion in additional fossil fuel costs. This surge is linked to geopolitical conflicts, particularly involving Iran, which has increased the cost of imports. In Italy, average self-service prices have reached 2.1 euros for gasoline and 2.208 euros for diesel.
In Mexico, the PAN caucus is actively seeking to reduce the IEPS tax to mitigate high gasoline costs. Meanwhile, the aviation industry is calling for relief regarding location and fuel costs as energy pressures continue to affect various sectors.
