Denmark’s energy minister called on citizens to reduce their energy use amid the ongoing Middle East conflict.

Oil prices jumped to over $100 a barrel on Thursday, raising fears of rising inflation.

“If it is not strictly necessary to drive the car, then don’t do it,” the minister stressed to Danish citizens.

    I agree, but then this isn’t about fuel, but about subsidising logistics.

      I don’t know what “this” you are talking about but the fact of the matter is that high fuel costs hurt the poorest most, and I don’t believe you have a meaningful solution to that.
