Pump prices have been rising in some gas stations in recent days due to the war in the Middle East. Coopérative U's CEO on franceinfo said the state was benefiting from this increase.
Bercy refutes the accusations of Dominique Schelcher, CEO of Coopérative U, that the state would be the main beneficiary of rising prices for the Middle East conflict pump.
Bercy rejected the statement by the CEO of Coopérative U Dominique Schelcher that "the state" would be the "great winner" of the increase in fuel prices due to the Middle East war. The fuel distributors were received that same day in the ministry in order to limit an excessive increase in their prices. - The "great winner" state of an increase in fuel ? Bercy refutes (Economy).
The owner of U stores estimated that the state is the "great winner" of the increase in the price of gasoline, due to the taxes imposed.
On Thursday, the Ministry of Economy refutes the idea that the state benefits from the high fuel prices caused by the conflict in the Middle East, thus contradicting the claims made by a distributor.
Dominique Schelcher recalled this Thursday morning that "most of the price of fuel is not the margins of distributors (...) but the taxes".
