In a discussion with Cosmin Prelipceanu on Digi24 on Sunday, March 15, Eugenia Gusilov addressed fuel prices, developments in the Strait of Hormuz, and recent statements by OMV Austria CEO Alfred Stern regarding gasoline pricing at 80 eurocents (4 lei per liter).

Stern's statement aligns with public debates in Romania over the previous two weeks, indicating that out of a final fuel price of 8.5 lei per liter, roughly 4 lei represents the real cost including company profit margins, while 4.5 lei consists of state taxes.

The conversation also covered the temporary 30-day suspension of certain sanctions on Russian oil and the potential utilization of underground gas storage facilities in Ukraine by Romania.
