The French Prime Minister Elizabeth Bourne emphasized today that France intends to re-nationalize the electricity company EDF in order to ensure the country's energy security.

"Today I confirm to you that the state intends to hold 100 percent of EDF's capital. This will allow EDF to strengthen its capacities to implement in the shortest possible time its ambitious and irreplaceable projects for our future energy", she told the MPs in her first appearance after the parliamentary elections.
