France's Le Maire calls for EU response to high energy prices

French Finance minister Bruno Le Maire said on Monday high energy prices were a key issue for all the European countries, adding it was now the time to have coordinated EU response to tackle the issue.

"It is time to have a European response. It is time to have a look at the energy market", Le Maire told reporters just before the Eurogroup meeting in Luxemburg, echoing what his Spanish counterpart had said moments earlier.
