Finally, diesel will decrease US$0.07 throughout the region, with prices of US$3.71 in the central zone, US$3.72 in the western zone and US$3.76 in the eastern zone of the country.

These price variations are a considerable reduction for the beginning of the month, since currently the value of fuel changes due to different factors such as: production costs, taxes, and international oil prices. In this case, it is still related to the geopolitical conflict in the Middle East and Russia.
