Crude Oil Jumps Over 1% as Russia-Ukraine Peace Hopes Fade

NYMEX crude oil prices rebounded by more than 1% after the weekend meeting between former US President Donald Trump and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky ended without clear solutions on key issues.

The lack of concrete progress has increased market belief that the Russia-Ukraine war will not end anytime soon. Traders feel a quick ceasefire is unlikely, which is supporting crude oil prices.

If the conflict continues for a longer period, Russia’s crude oil production could face pressure. At the same time, Western sanctions on Russia are still in place and continue to test the country’s ability to export oil smoothly to global markets.

These supply worries are helping crude oil prices stay firm, even as global demand concerns remain.

FAQs

Crude oil prices rose because talks between Trump and Ukraine’s Zelensky failed to resolve key issues, reducing hopes of a quick end to the Russia-Ukraine war.

The war creates supply risks, especially for Russian oil, which supports higher crude oil prices globally.
