Petrolul s-a scumpit cu 2% după ce China a suspendat exporturile de combustibil. Barilul a ajuns la 100,48 dolari

Oil prices increased by about 2% after China suspended petroleum product exports, tightening the already strained fuel market. The Brent crude price rose to $100.48 per barrel, while light sweet crude reached $92.07. China's decision to halt exports is expected to impact global fuel supply, which is already facing shortages. Analysts predict a global diesel supply tightening due to reduced refining capacity amid ongoing conflicts. The U.S. administration has urged Germany and France to release diesel from their emergency reserves to stabilize prices, warning of potential U.S. export bans if prices do not decrease. Europe is increasingly reliant on U.S. fuel following the ban on Russian imports due to the Ukraine invasion.
