This pause allows for further dialogue and potentially the resolution of outstanding issues without immediate disruption to fuel supply. The outcome will likely depend on the specific terms agreed upon during the talks and the government's subsequent actions to address the association's concerns, which could involve policy adjustments or financial incentives.
