STORYLINE:
Empty shelves and posters informing consumers that the purchase of oil is limited to a certain number of bottles, this is what the "Cooking oil" shelves of French supermarkets have looked like for the past few days.
France, a country which imports two-thirds of its supplies from Ukraine, is anticipating supply problems due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine crisis.
Millions of tonnes of sunflower oil destined for European buyers in Ukraine has been trapped, causing a major supply shock.
French people have tended to stock up in recent weeks. As a result, the shelves of many supermarkets are empty.
The shortage of sunflower oil has also pushed up the price of other vegetable oils around the world.
