Eagerly awaited on the pension reform, Emmanuel Macron responded to the other concerns that the workers of Rungis, where he was on Tuesday morning, submitted to him. A young butcher told him about his difficulties with inflation and soaring fuel prices. The Head of State then indicated that he wanted a new “gesture” on diesel, calling before the press present for the “spirit of responsibility” of major producers like Total.
“I hope that the dialogue can be finalized between the ministry and the companies concerned as it was done last year on fuels with rebates at the pump which had been made by companies like Total”, explained the president to the market of national interest in Rungis, accompanied by the Minister for Agriculture Marc Fesneau and the Minister for SMEs Olivia Grégoire.
“We can also have gestures made again,” added Emmanuel Macron. “I know the spirit of responsibility of our major producers and retailers and I think it is important in a period when we need to support our compatriots,” he said.
