Creșterea prețurilor la gaz și la energie electrică devine o preocupare majoră

Peter Kazimir from the ECB warns that inflation in the eurozone may exceed current forecasts, driven by rising energy prices. The ECB recently raised interest rates and revised inflation predictions upward, indicating potential further increases in the coming year. Kazimir emphasizes the growing concern over natural gas and electricity prices, which are at a four-year high. He notes that food inflation is expected to rise due to various factors, including drought and increased costs for diesel and fertilizers. The risks of inflation are clearly increasing, and further tightening of monetary policy may be necessary to control it.
