We will reduce energy and fuel prices
Sali Berisha, in a meeting with residents of the capital, promises a reduction in the price of electricity. The DP leader said the tax that the government receives in 1 liter of oil is absurd.
« Albania can sell energy without any loss to citizens by 7 lek. We will reduce 7 lek kilowat. We will reduce the business to 6 lek. Oil. Many can say, but what we need in oil.
Because they pay travel tickets wherever they go with the price of oil. Because they pay the price of all the goods they buy, transport, at high oil prices. Oil in Albania sells 40-50% more expensive than in Kosovo. Meanwhile, oil in Kosovo comes from Durres. He goes from Durres to Kosovo, selling 40% cheaper.
Why? I tell you why. Because the tax that the government receives in 1 liter of oil is absurd, it receives 1.1 euros. Whereas, anyone who buys 1 liter of oil, the government has robbed 1.1 euros of tax. No, we will halve these. Who pays this? Citizens pay it. That he who sells it, he pays nothing. On the contrary, he sells and so on. So we will halve these taxes and Albanians will buy oil at those prices, plus minus 10% buying Macedonians, Kosovars, Montenegrins, and absolutely no more penny. We will try to ease the burden on people, ” Berisha said.
