During a morning broadcast on Digi24, the current situation at the fuel pump was discussed, specifically the fact that gasoline has become more expensive than diesel. Normally, in Romania, where there is a high consumption of diesel and a low consumption of petrol, the price of diesel is higher because the country imports diesel and exports petrol. This structural dynamic is tied to the national car fleet, which is dominated by diesel vehicles.

The current price reversal in the market reflects lower quotes for diesel in the Mediterranean area. This is the result of a micro-relaxation in the diesel market, driven by a partial shift of car consumption toward electric vehicles and China's reduction of crude oil imports. Additionally, the price of a barrel of oil reflects considerable optimism, fueled by the prospect of a peace agreement during the summer.
