She runs, she runs inflation.

The prices of road fuels sold in France continued to rise towards new records last week, in the wake of crude oil prices, according to data from the Ministry of Ecological Transition published on Monday.

The liter of diesel reached 1.6995 euro on average, according to weekly figures from the ministry arrested on Friday.

This is still 1.41 cents more than the previous week.

The liter of super SP95 was worth 1.7810 euros (+1.56 cents) and that of SP 95-E10 1.8366 euros (+1.56 cents as well).

Supply still limited in producing countries

Prices at the pump have not stopped rising in recent weeks in the wake of oil prices, driven by geopolitical tensions and the still limited supply from major producing countries.

The price of a barrel of Brent from the North Sea rose above 96 dollars on Monday - a peak not seen since 2014 - amid Western fears of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The rise in prices at the pump is significant for the government in the run-up to the presidential election and against a background of rising cost of living.
