French cigarette prices will rise due to inflation in 2023, according to the Prime Minster Elizabeth Borne.

Over the past two years, cigarette prices in France have remained largely stable. However, in 2023, prices are set to increase due to inflation. Earlier, French Prime Minister Elizabeth Borne revealed this information in an interview with BFMTV.
