Paris (France) (AFP) – French President Emmanuel Macron says that the G7 countries will draw “up to 100 million barrels” of diesel and crude oil from their reserves “within the next four months” to ease pressure on prices at the pump. They have agreed not to restrict their exports of these products, he adds. The announcement comes after G7 leaders held a video conference chaired by French President Emmanuel Macron, as the United States stepped up pressure on Europe to release strategic reserves and threatened a diesel export ban.
