Companies will be able to discuss changes in fuel supply volumes with the Russian Energy Ministry in the event of force majeure, according to Interfax

This development allows companies to engage directly with the Russian Energy Ministry regarding fuel supply issues triggered by force majeure events. It signals a potential adjustment in how Russia manages its energy exports, which could influence oil supply dynamics and have broader implications for energy prices, particularly for commodities like WTI and gold. Traders should monitor how this affects geopolitical risk sentiment and associated currency movements, particularly in the USD and EUR.
