Slovakia Considers Higher Fuel Prices for Foreign Drivers

Slovakia is considering implementing higher prices for fuel at gas stations for foreign drivers or restricting their refueling, due to increased demand from drivers from neighboring countries, particularly Poland, where prices are higher. This has led to shortages at some gas stations. The government aims to maintain prices comparable to those in Poland and lower than in Austria, currently avoiding price caps like those imposed by Hungary. This move comes amid concerns about a global rise in fuel prices due to the situation in Iran.
