Shockingly high fuel prices for foreigners from Wednesday in Hungary!
Change language:
Foreigners will have to pay significantly more for one litre of fuel from Wednesday since the cost of the fuel keeps rising. That increase does not concern foreign citizens with Hungarian license plates. They will be able to fill the tank by paying the government’s capped price. However, those foreigners and Hungarians whose license plates are not Hungarian will have to pay more for fuel in Hungary than ever from Wednesday. Here are the details.
The Hungarian government decided to introduce a price cap on fuel last November. That was because of the inflation and price increase generated by the end of the coronavirus pandemic. Furthermore, it was the fundamental interest of the fourth Orbán-cabinet to
mitigate the social consequences of the worsening economic situation in the world.
Therefore, the government introduced several price caps concerning some basic food types, utilities and fuel. Among others, these measures resulted in a fourth consecutive supermajority. Everybody thought Orbán would abolish the price caps after his new government is formed.
However, that did not happen. The fifth Orbán cabinet decided to extend the deadlines of all the price caps. Later they realized that Slovakians, Romanians, Serbians, Slovenians, and Austrians living close to the border took advantage of the situation.
This platform has been used in recent time, to communicate an OBSERVATION – the high number of upper to high range motor vehicles, growing in number, that are registered and display Ukraine number plates.
District 5 – is a factual example.
WILL they – from Friday – pay the price, for NOT being in there country at War with Russia ???
@Mindboggling – What are you trying to say? Is English your third language, or did your learn from an 18th century school-master? Given you change your moniker constantly, you still write in a fashion that is nearly unintelligible. Full of unnecessary hyphens and other grammatical idiosyncrasies. Please, you seem to have something to say, maybe use an app to help express your thoughts.
