OREANDA-NEWS   France's refusal to import Russian energy resources provoked a crisis in the entire eurozone and, in particular, affected the lives of the French, who faced rising energy prices, said the deputy of the National Assembly of France Marie-France Loro.

"Madame Marie-France Loro asks the Minister of Energy Transition [Agnes Panier-Runache] about the new energy crisis, partly caused by financial sanctions against Russia, faced by the French. Russia has always sold its energy raw materials to France at very good prices. However packages of economic sanctions have been adopted against Russia," the text of the appeal says.

By imposing sanctions on Russia, sanctions are also being imposed against the French, who face them on a daily basis, in particular, with an explosive increase in energy prices

"This year, for the first time in 42 years, France has become a net importer of electricity, in particular, from German coal-fired power plants. At the beginning of 2023, almost half of French companies will have to renew their supply contracts, which will lead to an unsustainable increase in their tariffs and jeopardize the activities of many of them," the letter to the head of the French Ministry of Energy Transition clarifies.
