Rising fuel prices: possible instruments “are quite small”, warns Macron

“Very few measures have a substantial impact on something that does not depend on us”, insisted Emmanuel Macron, Tuesday January 25, during a trip to Haute-Vienne, while fuel prices are on the rise , say Les Echos. “We are dependent on world prices,” recalled the Head of State.

However, in the light of the April presidential election, the executive does not intend to sit idly by. If Bruno Le Maire ruled out a tax cut on Monday, the government is of course working on new measures, confirmed the President of the Republic. And this, while the energy check (for electricity prices) as well as the inflation allowance of 100 euros have already been put in place.

Big wheels. “We must support our compatriots in the most effective way, the question will arise for the government of whether more needs to be done. The government continues to work on these subjects with the producers and the distributors, according to the evolution of the courses, to seek practical measures”, indicated Emmanuel Macron, who wants to be reassuring whereas the purchasing power has become the primary concern of the French. It is true that the executive fears social unrest.

However, "if we want to do it in a timely manner, the instruments are quite limited", acknowledged the President of the Republic. According to Les Echos, raising the scale used for the mileage allowance would be considered. The measure would concern the 2.5 million taxed households that declare their actual costs. Something to specifically target large riders.

For his part, the Minister of the Economy, Bruno Le Maire, indicated that a solution would see the light of day "perhaps in the week", reports Le Monde. A meeting is planned between the boss of Bercy and the Prime Minister, Tuesday at the end of the day, to specify the contours.
