By Gokhan Ergocun
ISTANBUL (AA) - Annual inflation in France hit a record 7.3% in February, the national statistics bureau Insee said on Wednesday. The prices were up from 7% in January.
The authority's previous expectation for February inflation was 7.2%.
Insee said the figure was a result of higher prices of food, services, and manufactured goods, while energy rates slowed down.
Inflation was 4.2% in February 2022, and 0.8% in February 2021.
