Aproape o şesime din rezervele strategice de petrol au fost epuizate din luna martie, arată AIE

The International Energy Agency reported that nearly one-sixth of strategic oil reserves of member states have been depleted since March. Approximately 325 million barrels have been released from the promised 400 million. The G7 announced a coordinated release of 100 million barrels, but it remains unclear if this includes previously committed amounts. Factors complicating supply include disruptions in Gulf exports and attacks on Russian energy infrastructure. Rising fuel prices are affecting global markets, including the U.S., where political debates focus on inflation and energy costs ahead of midterm elections. Trump indicated potential export restrictions to Europe, but later downplayed the idea.
