Die EU teilt der Slowakei mit, dass ihr Plan, Dieselpreise für ausländische Fahrer zu erhöhen, illegal sei

Well we saw how good that worked (tell a country to not doing illegal shit) with Hungary. If orban gets kicked out it was the people of Hungary and not the EU.

Why do countries repeat these mistakes. Germany tried similar around toll roads, same problem.

Let the state’s statistics institute formulate expectations on tax gains based on the risen gasoline prices, create an appropriate tax refund or direct social security payout for local car owners with their next tax statement, done.

If the fear is that car owners will run out of money soon, let a state bank hand out small zero interest loans for local car owners on top of that. Let them pay it back later with the tax rebate.

There are so many ways to provide preferred treatment to local citizens without explicitly discriminating EU citizens, yet countries attempt this populist bs.

Would be nice if Poles backed off from Slovakia’s oil. Same for the Germans near us.

Duh, just do what Hungary does, require a domestic license plate for cheaper fuel
