Marine Le Pen’s criticism of the French government’s sanctions against Russia.
The leader of the extreme right wing of France called and condemned the policy of his country’s government in applying sanctions against Russia as “inappropriate and inconsiderate”.
Marine Le Pen, the leader of the French far-right “National Rally” party, condemned the Paris government’s decision to impose new sanctions against Russia this year and called it the result of the Paris government’s “poor judgment” in the context of energy price jumps.
According to the Sputnik news agency, Le Pen said that the French government was influenced by the European Union’s convulsions surrounding the war in Ukraine and applied “inappropriate and reckless” sanctions against Russia.
Paris has joined the European Union’s policy of imposing ever tougher sanctions against Russia over its special military operations in Ukraine. However, these sanctions had an adverse effect on the Europeans themselves and caused the export of an important pipeline of Russian gas to Europe to be stopped, resulting in a jump in electricity and gas prices and an increase in inflation in the European continent.
Le Pen continued to emphasize that the current crisis related to electricity prices in France is a direct result of the Paris government’s decision to abandon nuclear power after the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan.
After the Fukushima nuclear disaster caused by the tsunami in Japan, France, in line with several other European countries such as Germany, gradually closed down its nuclear power plants and took the path of green energy production, and in this process switched to gas energy. has relied
A major part of the gas consumed in Europe is also supplied by buying gas from Russia, but the transfer of Russian gas to Europe has decreased after the problems caused by Western sanctions for the turbine of the “Nord Stream 1” gas transmission pipeline.
