France’s transport minister provides assurances about petrol supplies

French Transport Minister Clement Beaune stated on Tuesday that there was enough petrol in the country as a national strike loomed this week.

“As of today, there are petrol stocks,” Beaune said.

All unions have scheduled a nationwide day of strike action on Thursday, and workers in critical sectors like as electricity, public transportation, air travel, and schools have said they will participate.

Last week, France‘s CGT trade union called for refinery strikes in protest of plans to make employees work longer before they can retire, while Paris metro unions warned they would do “all in their power” to stop the pension reform.
