What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East are limiting the global supply of diesel, causing price comparisons between Greece and the EU average. The average price for diesel in Greece is currently €2.224 per liter, compared to €2.226 in the European Union and €2.262 in the eurozone. The government is planning support measures to mitigate price increases, with the first phase announced on September 30, covering the first 15 days of October.
