Member of the Syndicate of Gas Station Owners, George Brax, said, in a statement today, that "the time has come for the political and monetary authorities to reach an agreement since the country is being destroyed."

He pointed out that "the warehouses of the oil-importing companies have started to run out of stock, and the stock in gas stations is only sufficient till the end of the week,” referring to the problems occurring at gas stations and warning that "the issue is very serious, and those concerned should agree on the mechanism that must be followed in relation to the price of fuels."

Brax, thus, appealed to officials, "to find a quick solution because the situation is no longer bearable for gas stations, and out of compassion for the people and the owners of the stations, because we are heading towards complete paralysis if this situation persists,” adding that “the Central Bank Governor must allow the gasoline ship, currently at sea, to be unloaded according to the schedule approved by the Ministry of Energy."
