Political positions

[edit]

In May 2021, Lalucq joined a group of 39 mostly Green Party lawmakers from the European Parliament who in a letter urged the leaders of Germany, France and Italy not to support Arctic LNG 2, a $21 billion Russian Arctic liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, due to climate change concerns.[11]

In 2022, Lalucq urged France's market regulator AMF to review its decision to register the Binance cryptocurrency exchange as a digital assets service provider, citing a Reuters investigation into money laundering on the platform.[12]
