ISTANBUL (AA) - Germany's annual inflation rate was at 2.2% in June, down from 2.4% in May, the federal statistical authority Destatis said on Thursday.
“Energy and food prices have had a dampening effect on overall inflation since the beginning of the year,” said Ruth Brand, Destatis' head.
"By contrast, we continue to see above-average increases in service prices," she added.
The prices of energy products last month in Germany fell 2.1% versus the same month of the previous year.
Food prices were up 1.1% in June on a yearly basis in the country.
Meanwhile, consumer prices were up 0.1% in June on a monthly basis.
