According to Eurostat data, Romania is once again at the forefront of the European Union countries with an annual inflation rate of 9.2% in June, in contrast to the EU average of 2.9%. The lowest inflation rates in the EU were recorded in Sweden (1%), the Czech Republic (1.1%), and Denmark (1.8%). Compared to May, the inflation rate in Romania decreased from 9.7% to 9.2%, while in the Eurozone it dropped to 2.8%.

The main contributions to inflation in the Eurozone came from services, energy, and food.
