""This conflict, this war, is the real cause of the problems we also have in our own country," said Merz, linking the international situation to domestic fuel price issues."
Germany will temporarily reduce energy taxes on diesel and petrol by about 17 cents per liter for two months.

The increase in prices is attributed to the conflict in Iran, which has disrupted oil tanker passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Merz emphasized the need for oil companies to pass on the tax relief to consumers.
