Inflation continues to strangle the French.
In response, Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne announced on Wednesday a fuel allowance of 100 euros for the 10 million poorest French people.
Prices at the pump have been on a downward trend since the middle of October.
In mid-November, they rose temporarily after the fall in rebates from the State and TotalEnergies on a liter of fuel.
Now 10 cents each, they will remain in effect until December 31.
In 2022, the fuel rebate will have cost the State 8 billion euros, or “the equivalent of the budget of the Ministry of Justice”, underlined the Minister of Public Accounts Gabriel Attal.
