Hungary Set Price Cap On Gasoline And Diesel

A petrol station displays the government-mandated maximum price of petrol at 595 Forints and diesel at 615 Huf in Budapest, Hungary, on March 10, 2026. A price cap comes into immediate effect today due to soaring oil prices caused by rising tensions in the Middle Eastern region. The new price cap is called ''Protected price'' and is announced by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban (not pictured) yesterday afternoon. (Photo by Balint Szentgallay/NurPhoto)
