RE: My Wartime Diary. Kyiv, Ukraine. Day 24.

Nice to hear that you are well so far, according to the circumstances of course.

To your question:

Gasoline prices doubled in Austria too for a short time period 1 Liter was 2,50 € and more but went back to 1,70 € a liter at the moment, wich is still a lot more than before the start of the russian invasion. It was 1,40 € per liter. In Germany it was much higher than it Austria since they have even higher taxes on gasoline. but there is still a lot of volatility in price going on at the moment.

But not only gas for the car got more expensive, a lot of prices for electricity, heating and food rose dramatically. Not funny anymore, I hope we will get back to reasonable prices soon.

Sort:  

Well, our prices are strange. Some food added 20%, or 50%, or even 150%, some didn't changed. This is strange, because the exchange rate (usd/eur) is fixed for all banks during war time. Gas started to rise before the war, but now it is about 1 euro/liter. I think this is because they were banned to rise prices. Considering the number of people who lost their job, moved and so on, this is a good decision I think.
