A French court ruled on Tuesday that a lawsuit against oil major TotalEnergies over its controversial oil projects in Uganda and Tanzania was inadmissible.

The logo of French oil and gas company TotalEnergies is seen on an oil tank at TotalEnergies fuel depot in Mardyck near Dunkirk, France, January 16, 2023.

But the court dismissed the request, saying that only a judge examining the case more in depth could assess whether the accusations against TotalEnergies were founded and to then proceed to an audit of operations on the ground.
