I get the point, and I agree however if you have cheap energy as they have in North Africa then you don't need to. I did see somewhere that Yara and other European producers received some support but might be wrong. As long as the government keep paying me I don't mind

Plenty of businesses running like that nowadays - seems everyone is trying to pull a fast one or rip off someone else on the basis that they are struggling to stay afloat themselves.
