France unveils date of fuel crisis end

French Energy Minister Agnès Pannier-Runacher has announced the deadline on the air of the BFMTV channel.

The shortage of fuel at gas stations in France, which began due to massive strikes at oil refineries (refineries), should be completed in two or three days, Gazeta reports.

According to the minister, now the fuel crisis has affected at least 15 percent of gas stations that lack one or more types of fuel. As a way to deal with the shortage, the authorities bought fuel in Belgium.

The main reason for what is happening Pannier-Runacher called the strike of workers at the country's large refineries, as well as the conflict in Ukraine. The minister urged oil refiners and employees to come to an agreement as soon as possible.
