Fuel prices: Emmanuel Macron wants a new “gesture” on diesel

President Emmanuel Macron is putting pressure on oil companies, saying he wants a new financial “gesture” for motorists.

The president wants a new fuel discount from the oil companies. Emmanuel Macron affirms that the discussion, started with the companies involved, must end, as it did last year.

“I know the spirit of responsibility of the producers and merchants”, stressed the Head of State. A way to put pressure on TotalEnergies, without making help at the pump mandatory.

“We have to work more”

On the occasion of this morning’s trip to the Rungis market, the President of the Republic also relied on the “common sense” of the French and reiterated that “we must work a little more”.

“People who work at night with heavy and cold loads. We take these differences into account in the calculation but, in general, people know that you have to work a little more on average, because otherwise you will not be able to not finance our pensions”, said Emmanuel Macron from the halls of the market, accompanied by the Minister of Agriculture Marc Fesneau and the Delegate Minister for SMEs Olivia Grégoire.
