Fuel prices slightly lower

The prices of petrol and diesel have dropped slightly in the past week, the Czech petrol seller CCS said on Monday. While the average price of petrol dropped by 6 hallers to 32.54 crowns, or 2.21 US dollars, per litre in the Czech Republic, the average price of diesel decreased by 5 hallers to 34.85, or 2.38 US dollars, crowns per litre. Analysts cite the strengthening crown against the US dollar as the main factor behind the drop, and expect fuel prices to keep decreasing in the coming weeks.
