Fuel prices rise in Riga, fall in Tallinn and Vilnius

Over the past working week, fuel prices in Riga increased, while in Tallinn and Vilnius they decreased.

During the past working week, the three Baltic capitals saw diverging trends in fuel prices. In Riga, prices went up, while in Tallinn and Vilnius they moved in the opposite direction, going down.

The differing developments across the Baltic capitals suggest that fuel price changes are being driven by different factors in each market rather than following a uniform regional pattern.

The source report does not provide further details on specific price levels or the exact scale of the changes.
