The Estonian government is reducing the fuel tax. Fuel will become cheaper. The price will drop slightly.
The fuel reserve needs to be maintained. This cost goes into the price of fuel. Now the tax is decreasing.
The price of fuel will drop by 0.25%. It's a small amount. But cheaper is good.
In spring, the price may rise. The Minister of Finance says that the excise tax will increase. This has been factored in.
The budget is in deficit. During the elections, everyone promises cheaper fuel. The minister is not sure if this is a good idea.
