The price of gasoline burns the Greeks - a picture across the country

To rise to its highest level of all time, it "raised" the price of unleaded gasoline, keeping only half a cent of a euro from breaking the national all-time accuracy record set in August 2012. At very high levels are average prices for other fuels, which, combined with extensive accuracy in a huge range of products and services, literally drive employees, retirees, the unemployed, freelancers, and businesses to despair.

In absolute fuel terms, gasoline ranks first due to the high excise tax (efk), which is one of the highest in the European Union. This is also the reason why our country constantly "figures" in the top three or four countries of the EU, usually after the Netherlands, Finland and Denmark, since the efk is 700 euros per kiloliter of unleaded gasoline.

Of course, in the above countries, income data are clearly and far superior to the current ones in Greece. Based on the latest data from the Liquid Fuels Observatory, the national average price of unleaded petrol was 1,831 euros yesterday, 1 February, just 7 millimeters euros lower than the record set in August 2012 at a national average of 1,838.

However, then the price of Brent oil rose above $100 per barrel against about $89, which it is today.
