Santo Domingo – The Vice Minister of Internal Trade, Ramón Pérez Fermín, reported this Friday that the government has allocated more than 466 million pesos to prevent increases in fuels for the week of Saturday October 29 to Friday November 4 of this year, so the prices of all fuels will remain unchanged.
Pérez Fermín explained that at the cutoff of this Wednesday, the international price of WTI had an average of 85.77, maintaining an accumulated annual increase of almost 19%.
“The global market looks uncertain and ambiguous, with a marked volatility that consequently makes it difficult to predict,” he detailed.
With this subsidy, the government maintained that it is stopping increases from 24 pesos per gallon in premium gasoline, up to 73 pesos per gallon in optimal diesel.
