French President Emmanuel Macron said that in order to curb the energy costs fueled by the Middle East conflict and the Russian-Ukrainian war, France has finalized a new supply of liquefied natural gas from Qatar, and will also take steps to reduce fuel transportation costs in the Persian Gulf. Macron told reporters on Wednesday in Doha, Qatar, that based on the relevant agreement reached in the Middle East, France will receive a total of 2 terawatt-hours of liquefied natural gas every month in winter. In order to reduce fuel transportation prices, France has, on the one hand, improved navigation safety guarantees for some carriers, and on the other hand, set up supporting mechanisms to provide insurance support for some ships sailing in the region.
