Will the situation ever improve? At this point, it seems a bit difficult to consider. Indeed, the prices displayed at gas stations do not seem to want to stop rising, even if they have been the highest for many weeks. Of course, some brands play the game and offer discounts for their customers, but this is not enough. And there is no question of the government making the slightest gesture when it refuses reduce taxationwhich remains the biggest black spot at the moment.

No falling
Of course, the state will introduce a compensation of 100 euros, but it will not come until next year and will be reserved only for the most modest households.

High prices
The latter, who is also a representative of oil tankers in France, claims that ” some refineries have already announced measures on fuel prices. But these are measures that are specific to the distributor, and not agreed upon“. According to him ” fuel at a price that is continental, therefore European, resulting from the balance of supply and demand. This balance is important for France. France will not change anything“. Therefore, we should not expect without lowering prices Now.
