Fuel prices in our country have reached new highs – the gas ran out 3,40 leva. Almost 3,60 leva reaches the price of diesel. According to economist Mihail Krastev, fuel prices can reach much higher values – even to 6 leva. And from 2023 Mr. we are likely to pay 5 BGN per liter.
He pointed, that it may turn out, that the new indicators through 2023 year will cause a greater appreciation. “We can reach a price of over 5 leva per liter of fuel. One of the reasons is the EU's new fuel excise policy – so far it was on 1000 liter of fuel, and from now on – as an energy value. This will result in an increase of over 1 BGN for mass fuels. In the case of propane-butane and methane, even a much greater growth will be reached”, he explained.
According to him, Bulgaria uses almost entirely Russian oil, but this does not affect the prices of the speakers. The reason – no diversification of sources, nor at the fuel depots. “Until consumption decreases, prices will rise”, Krastev is categorical.
