Correct, no comma before the last element if it is preceded by a conjunction (e.g. “et”, that is “and” in English) in French

I mean, reading that sentence, it certainly wouldn’t surprise me if they omitted it just to spite the British.

It’s only an Oxford comma if it’s from the region of Oxford. Otherwise it’s just sparkling interpunction.
