On the 18th local time, French President Emmanuel Macron said that France will push the European Union to take action to deal with the energy issue. He also believes that the US and Iran are unlikely to reach an agreement on the Strait of Hormuz issue in the short term. Macron said that in recent weeks, fuel prices have risen sharply, causing French citizens and families to face a difficult situation. Fuel prices at French gas stations have risen to historic highs, causing considerable difficulties and exacerbating purchasing power problems. Natural gas prices and the overall energy situation are also worrying, and these situations are entirely caused by wars and international situations. Macron said that France hopes to take action at the EU level and will communicate with the President of the European Commission on this matter.
