[01] Ceiling on Fuel Prices Takes Effect
Wednesday, 24 March 2010 14:20
A ceiling on fuel prices took effect Wednesday in eight prefectures in
Greece. The ceiling will expire on 11 April. The goal is to withhold
fuel prices, which had gone out of control in several regions
throughout Greece, including Crete, where unleaded fuel was sold above
1.60 euros per litre.
Consumers in Crete welcomed the ceiling on the fuel prices. Petrol
station owners, on the other hand, expressed their objections, calling
on the government to impose a ceiling in refineries, as well.
