The announcement that there is a serious risk of fuel supply disruptions, as well as an increase in fuel prices, has created crowds at the pumps.

Citizens therefore decided to fill up their vehicle tanks.

The Association of Oil Companies of Montenegro (UNKCG) has warned that there is a serious risk of an interruption in the fuel supply to Montenegro, because fuel prices, especially Eurodiesel, are 30 percent higher than the current prices.

"Vijesti" unofficially learned that some gas stations have already run out of fuel, and that most of the others will have problems starting tomorrow.

On the other hand, Minister of Energy and Mining Admir Šahmanović claims that there will be no fuel shortage in Montenegro.

He confirmed to Television Vijesti that they expect a significant price increase from Tuesday, but not 16 cents as claimed by the Association of Oil Companies, but 14 cents per liter of diesel, while according to them, gasoline will be 6 cents more expensive, not 7 cents.
