US diesel export ban could push Finnish pump prices to 3.50 euros

iltalehti.fi (Iloko) —

A potential US diesel export ban under the Trump administration could raise fuel prices in Finland, with experts warning pump prices might temporarily exceed three euros per liter. Diesel futures rose 5-7 percent this week on the uncertainty, according to EK expert Arttu Karila. OP calculations suggest prices could reach 3.20-3.50 euros per liter in the worst case. The ban faces opposition within the administration and from US oil companies. Experts consider it unlikely, noting it could raise US pump prices and harm America's reliability as an energy supplier.
