On Tuesday, the French government will present the new support program for citizens affected by fuel inflation, "Le Figaro" reports. According to the periodical, against the backdrop of limited budgetary opportunities and international restrictions, the authorities intend to revise the existing mechanisms and influence the volumes of supplies. The ministers of the economic bloc will present the steps to support households, businesses and vulnerable sectors at a press conference. "The executive power is intensifying efforts to calm the social discontent caused by fuel price hikes, as it has become one of the key themes of the presidential campaign," the newspaper writes. On Monday, the average price of diesel fuel in France remained at the level of 2.41 euros. One liter of "SP98" gasoline cost 2.28 euros, and "SP95" - 2.22 euros. Yesterday, President Emmanuel Macron appealed to the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, asking to soften the fuel regulations in order to achieve a decrease in prices.
