Menczer calls on fuel retailers to lower prices to regional average
Tamas Menczer, the communications director of the ruling alliance of Fidesz and the Christian Democrats, reiterated on Friday the government's call to Hungarian vehicle fuel retailers to lower the price of petrol and diesel to the regional average price.
“We expect fuel retailers to reduce their prices to the regional average in line with our previous consultations,” Menczer said in a video on Facebook, calling for a 24-forint cut in the price of petrol and an 11-forint cut in the price of diesel.
“If they fail to do so that would mean that they support the government in taking the necessary steps,” he said.
