[70588] Diesel price reduction in Turkey following a drop in global oil prices

Decrease in diesel prices in Turkey

Starting from the midnight between Thursday and Friday, May 22, 2026, a significant reduction in diesel prices was recorded in Turkey. According to the report by TGRT HABER channel, the price drop was updated immediately at gas stations across the country.

According to Haber Gündem, a channel associated with general and current news reports, this is a reduction of 2.35 Turkish liras per liter of diesel. The channel notes that gasoline prices remained unchanged in this update.

The main reason for the change in prices, as reported in Haber Gündem, lies in the global oil market. The calm stems from "positive messages" coming from the ongoing peace talks between the United States and Iran, which led to a drop in crude oil prices, a decline that eventually trickled down to consumers at gas stations.
