Petrolul se scumpeşte. Cotaţiile au crescut cu peste 3% - Economica.net

Oil prices surged over 3% due to escalating Middle East conflicts, including Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and Iranian assaults on Gulf vessels. Brent crude reached $107.82, while light sweet crude hit $103.22. The closure of Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline following drone strikes could disrupt up to 4% of global oil supply. The situation worsens as hopes for a resolution in the region fade, with Oman postponing a meeting between Iran and Gulf states regarding the strategic Strait of Hormuz. President Trump expressed indifference towards the meeting, emphasizing the ongoing tensions in the area.
