EU energy ministers are set to hold another emergency meeting to address the deep divisions over intervention measures in the natural gas market.
Member states are split on the proposed price cap, with some demanding a lower ceiling (220 euros) than the European Commission's 275 euros proposal, while others, like Germany, advocate for caution and oppose further reductions due to differing national interests.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
