The latest price hike on gas came over the last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>One liter of gasoline sell for 4.83 Turkish Liras (2.08 Euros), following the 9 kuru\u015f rise that took place last Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>The previous price hike came on Sept. 22 with a 26 kuru\u015f rise due to the increase in the special consumption tax (SCT).<\/p>\n<p>The Turkish government cabinet led by Tayyip Erdogan introduced the rise to try to close the budget deficit.<\/p>\n<h3>Norway loses the battle for highest oil price to Turkey<\/h3>\n<p>Prior to the price hike the most expensive gasoline was sold in Norway. The Nordic country is among the richest countries in the world with an average income of about $100,000 annual per capita, while Turkey\u2019s average income is just $10,000.<\/p>\n<p>One liter of gasoline in Norway sells for 2.08 euros. Gasoline prices in Greece, Italy and Spain &#8211; peripheral countries of the euro zone which are currently in the grip of financial crises &#8211; are also lower than prices in Turkey.<\/p>\n<p>The Turkish economy administration is set to declare a rise in natural gas this week, the leading source of electricity power, with the Energy Ministry stating that it cannot compensate recentrises in the global markets.
