Germany
Germany leads the EU in fuel price increases, with prices peaking recently. Eastern Europe offers significantly cheaper options. The Federal Cartel Office is investigating oil companies' pricing practices. Cross-border savings in Poland and the Czech Republic are notable.
The evidence supports the claim that Germany has experienced significant fuel price increases, leading the EU in such increases. However, there is no direct evidence verifying the claim about specific peak prices for Super E10 and diesel in Germany. Claims about fuel prices in Eastern Europe being €1.50 or less lack corroboration, and assertions about cross-border savings lack substantial evidence. There is no evidence provided to support the investigation by the Federal Cartel Office.
