EU COUNTRIES IMPOSE A CAP ON GASOLINE AND DIESEL PRICES - CYPRUS IS MONITORING AND WILL ACT ACCORDINGLY - Filenews 12/3 by Charalambos Zakos

The conflagration in the Middle East is causing a global energy shock. The price of oil is recording increases, while at some point it had even exceeded $100 per barrel, with the result that some governments have already moved forward with the imposition of a ceiling on fuel prices, in order to contain and limit the blow to their economy and their citizens from the rise in prices.

So far, Cyprus and the competent Ministry, i.e. the Ministry of Energy, have not made any decision regarding the imposition of a limit on fuel prices or another practice, such as the reduction of the tax, however, according to information received by "F", the issue remains open.

The public and private sector of our country is undertaking a safari to inform all our partners abroad who are related to tourism, in an effort to restore the image of Cyprus after the start of the war conflicts in the Middle East.

The involvement of our country's name in the military conflicts, after the drone hit of the British bases in Akrotiri and the descent of frigates from European countries, created a feeling of concern and insecurity for our island as a tourist destination, as a result, as we are informed, that there were cancellations of bookings for the period March – April, but even more worrying, to record cancellations for the summer season as well. This, combined with the relatively reduced flow of bookings for the summer months, alerted the tourism authorities.
