Domestic fuel prices must remain in the mid-range of the region, Minister of National Economy Márton Nagy stressed at a meeting with the Hungarian Petroleum Association and MOL, according to a statement by the Ministry of National Economy on Wednesday.
Based on an earlier agreement between the parties, the regular meetings will review domestic and international events and economic developments affecting fuel supply and prices, they said.
At the meeting, Márton Nagy pointed out that
the government remains committed to security of supply and adequate fuel prices, and has asked fuel distributors to honor their previous commitment to ensure competitive fuel prices at the regional level.
As in previous months, the parties have reviewed the possibilities for setting prices at the regional level so that domestic fuel prices are at least in the middle range. The minister noted that he saw scope for adjusting prices for petrol, but that no such scope could be identified for diesel.
The parties confirmed that having considered the views of the government and the minister, and in line with their objectives, they would endeavor to deliver on their commitment. Nagy emphasized that
affordable fuel is a common interest that, while protecting families, contributes to the recovery of consumption and the achievement of the four percent economic growth,
the statement concluded.
