Gas Prices Rise in Georgia
Gas prices in Georgia have set a historical record. The prices of all types of gasoline have reached a historic maximum. This was reported by Rustavi 2 television. Over the past 2-3 days, prices have increased by 15-20 tetri. In some gas stations, the price of fuel exceeds 2.7 lari (0.94 USD).
Local journalists associate the rise in fuel prices with the depreciation of the national currency amid ongoing protests. “In the last 2-3 days, the price of fuel has gone up. It reflects on everything - travel, money, and everything else,” a driver told the media. Some drivers believe that the rise in gasoline prices is artificial.
