On April 12, local time, the third round of talks between Iran and the United States in Islamabad concluded. Iran described this round as the "last chance" to reach a framework agreement. Since April 11, the two sides had a busy schedule, consulting late into the night, with all parties vying for the temporary ceasefire window and intensifying their maneuvering. However, sharp differences remained on three core issues: control of the Strait of Hormuz, unfreezing overseas assets, and uranium enrichment. Outside the negotiating table, the US military announced mine-clearing operations in the Strait of Hormuz, while the Israeli Prime Minister declared that he would continue to strike Iran and its proxies. With the ceasefire window closing, diplomatic maneuvering and military actions are escalating simultaneously, and the situation in the Middle East is at a crossroads between war and peace.April 12 - According to a statement released by the Iranian government early this morning (April 12) via social media, negotiations with the United States will continue despite some remaining differences.

Look at $82.75 on NYMEX crude oil

Oct 26, 2021 11:02

On Tuesday (October 12), international oil prices continued their upward momentum in the previous three trading days. Analysts said that the rebound in global demand and energy shortages in economies from Europe to Asia have driven oil prices to strengthen rapidly. NYMEX crude oil looks at US$82.75.

GMT+8 13:57, NYMEX crude oil futures rose 0.43% to 80.87 US dollars per barrel; ICE Brent crude oil futures rose 0.50% to 84.07 US dollars per barrel.


Overnight, the two cities respectively set a new high of US$82.18/barrel since October 29, 2014 and a new high of US$84.60/barrel since October 10, 2018.

Craig Erlam, senior market analyst at OANDA, said: "There is still a lot of momentum behind the oil rally, and the fundamentals are still extremely favorable. Even if we see oil prices return to triple digits later this year, it will not surprise us."

Driven by energy shortages in Asia, Europe and the United States, electricity prices have risen to record highs in recent weeks. The surge in natural gas prices has also prompted power plants to switch fuels from cleaner natural gas to oil.

Qatar, the world's largest producer of liquefied natural gas (LNG), told customers on Monday that it cannot help lower energy prices and supply more fuel to the market. Analysts estimate that the shift from natural gas to oil-based power generation may increase crude oil demand by 250,000 to 750,000 barrels per day.
