🇺🇸🇨🇳🇷🇺🇮🇷🇹🇼 — Three notable news items today:

➡️Russian Ministry of Energy stated that a preemptive ban on fuel exports may be imposed if prices rise.

➡️U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent stated that they may lift sanctions on Iranian oil currently at sea.

➡️China stated that peaceful reunification with Taiwan would resolve Taiwan's energy crisis in light of the war with Iran.

❓What does this mean?

Russia is signaling a fuel export ban to protect its domestic market, which would drive global prices higher. In response, Washington is considering allowing the sale of Iranian oil stuck at sea to quickly alleviate shortages and stabilize prices, even if this contradicts its broader policy toward Iran. Meanwhile, China is exploiting the crisis politically, suggesting that unification with Taiwan would secure the latter's energy supplies—a message of indirect pressure.

🇮🇷 — Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

Our response to the Israeli attack on our infrastructure utilized only a fraction of our capabilities. The sole reason for our restraint was out of respect for the request to de-escalate.

There will be no restraint if our infrastructure is targeted again.

Any end to this war must address the damage caused to our civilian sites.
