MOSCOW, June 10 (RIA Novosti) - Energy giant Gazprom [RTS: GAZP] is set to become a key player on the French energy market and could buy major assets in France, Gazprom's CEO said on Tuesday.

In an interview with French Le Figaro Alexei Miller said Gazprom's subsidiary in France was currently only supplying about 1% of natural gas consumed in the country.

"We are seeking to become a key energy operator in France," Miller said, adding that the energy giant would focus on medium and small businesses.

"We believe that the establishment of direct commercial relations with enterprises and local partners offers the best guarantees of secure deliveries," Miller said, adding that after that Gazprom could gain a foothold on the French retail market.
