The Ukrainian government is enacting measures to stabilize the fuel market due to external factors related to hostilities in the Middle East. Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko confirmed that Ukrnafta will sell fuel with minimal trade markups, establishing a benchmark for fair pricing.

The Antimonopoly Committee and consumer protection services will intensify oversight to prevent unjustified price increases. The government emphasizes the importance of ensuring fuel supplies for defense, agriculture, and public transport while collaborating with international partners to boost fuel imports. Recent reports indicated a rise in fuel prices by 5-6 hryvnias per liter amid increased demand.
