PARIS (Reuters) – France will look to ensure any financial hit to Naval Group from a cancelled Australia submarine deal is limited, French Armed Forces Florence Parly said on Thursday.

Parly did not rule out France seeking compensation from Australia.

“We are studying all avenues,” Parly told French radio RFI when asked whether France might seek compensation.
