November 11 (SeeNews) - Croatia's government said on Thursday it decided to cap the retail prices of petrol and diesel for 30 more days to alleviate the impact of the recent jump of oil prices on international markets on the country's economic recovery and the standard of living.
This time, however, price limits will apply only to Eurosuper 95 petrol and Eurodiesel and not to higher brand motor fuels, according to a video file of the cabinet meeting meeting published on the government's website.
In mid-October the government capped the maximum retail price of petrol at 11.11 kuna ($1.7/1.5 euro) per litre, while the maximum price of diesel was set at 11 kuna.
