A liter of gasoline will be sold for 24.97 lei, down 0.24 lei. The National Agency for Energy Regulation said the prices were set according to the latest developments on the international market, IPN reports.

According to the Agency, during the last 14 days, the Platts quotations, which are used to calculate the price ceilings, decreased by US$109 per tonne in the case of gasoline and by US$79.5 per tonne in the case of diesel fuel, down about 11.9% and 10% respectively.
