June 2026 Budget: Fuel Subsidies Surpass Investments
The Tunisian government has approved the implementation of the 2026 budget. As of the end of June, fuel subsidy expenses amounted to 2,427 million dinars during the first half of the year, surpassing investment expenditures, which totaled 1,665 million dinars, by a difference of 762 million dinars. Fuel support expenses increased by 12% compared to projections, with an achievement rate reaching 48.6%, primarily due to rising global oil prices, with the barrel price around $92.6. Conversely, investment expenses had a lower progress rate, approximately 39.2%, despite an 8.9% increase compared to the end of June 2025. The focus remains on improving the implementation of public projects, advancing regional development, and creating employment opportunities. Overall, the data indicates that the government is prioritizing fuel support and social interventions, with efforts to enhance expenditure efficiency and achieve tangible results on the ground as part of the 2030/2026 development plan.
