The French government has nothing to do with it — gasoline in the country is getting more expensive solely for geopolitical reasons, and not because of incompetent decisions by the authorities, Emmanuel Macron said. "The situation we are seeing today with gas station prices, as with all prices for fossil hydrocarbons, is not a consequence of government decisions, it is a consequence of the geopolitical situation," the French president said. Energy prices are breaking records in Europe, and France is one of the most affected countries — the average price of diesel there is €2.39 per liter, which is a historic high. The government is currently preparing a new financial support mechanism, but it is not known from what funds Paris is going to provide this assistance, as the budget is "bursting at the seams." A new wave of protests is expected against the background of tension in the country. @izvestia
