The prices of road fuels sold in France reached new records last week, according to official figures published on Monday, while crude oil prices soared with the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.

The liter of diesel was worth 1.7415 euros on average over the week, according to figures from the Ministry of Ecological Transition arrested on Friday.

This is 3.64 cents more than the previous week.

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.
