On Monday, September 21, the French government convened administrative officials to evaluate the impact of the ongoing energy crisis on oil and gas supplies. The meeting focused on studying potential new support measures to assist households and workers affected by sharp increases in fuel prices.
Concurrently, neighboring Portugal reported that fuel prices reached historic highs on the same day, driven by significant increases of approximately 6.5 cents per liter for diesel and 5 cents for gasoline. These record prices in Portugal occurred amid political friction between the government and the opposition regarding proposed value-added tax (IVA) reductions.
