The Italian government is preparing to once again extend the cut of excise duties on gasoline and diesel in response to the high fuel prices that continue to affect our country. This was announced by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport and Infrastructure, Matteo Salvini. “On Friday we will definitely have to extend the excise cut against high fuel prices. Even if for many truck drivers the cuts are irrelevant”, he explained to the microphones of Rtl 102.5.
New excise cut on fuels
Not by chance, the minister recalled that a meeting with the truckers’ unions is scheduled for Friday to revive the tax credit and find a few hundred thousand euros to cover otherwise loss-making budgets. “The truckers have called a strike and they are right, we must be able to help them“, Salvini added.

According to estimates, Ansa reports that the price of gasoline is slightly rising while that of diesel is essentially stable. The Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy announces that, based on the latest data collected by the Fuel Price Observatory of Mimit, today the average price of fuels in self-service mode along the national road network is 1.951 euros per liter for gasoline (it was 1.943 euros yesterday) and 1.978 euros per liter for diesel (it was 1.977 euros yesterday). On the highway network, instead, the average self-service price is 2.032 euros per liter for gasoline and 2.067 euros per liter for diesel.
