French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Monday he will meet retailers this week to find ways to help shoppers cope with high food price inflation, with a view to finding a solution to the problem by March 15.
"I will hold talks with French retailers this week... March 15 will be the deadline," Le Maire told BFM TV.
"There is no reason to see for mid-March a flight upwards in food prices. Let's stop playing with the fears of the French people," he added. Asked if the solution under consideration was for retailers to agree to sell an anti-inflation basket of everyday essential goods at knockdown prices, Le Maire said: "It will be the solution they find the most efficient."
