The price of gasoline goes through the roof

The Ministry of Energy and Mines (MEM) published on Tuesday, June 7, the reference prices of fuels in Guatemala, which will be in force from this day until June 13, 2022 and these reflect an increase of Q3. 16 per gallon of diesel and Q2. 88 in superior and regular gasolines. The new increase in force since Tuesday absorbed the extension of the subsidy for regular gasoline and diesel, and represents half of the subsidy that was established for the upper one as of last Tuesday. The price of diesel reached Q34.16, in the capital city in the self-service mode according to the new reference prices disclosed by the MEM, until Monday it stood at Q31.00.  The subsidy had risen from Q2 per gallon to Q7 per gallon.
