Putin says Middle East conflict could have Covid-like global impact -- Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that the ongoing Middle East conflict could have a global economic impact similar to the COVID-19 pandemic if it continues to escalate. He said prolonged geopolitical instability could slow development across all regions by disrupting trade, increasing energy prices, and creating uncertainty in global financial markets. -- According to Putin, the conflict risks affecting supply chains, investment flows, and economic growth worldwide. Rising oil prices, higher transportation costs, and market volatility could place additional pressure on businesses and governments already navigating a fragile global recovery. -- Economists note that while the full impact will depend on how the conflict evolves, prolonged instability in the Middle East could fuel inflation, weaken international trade, and slow economic growth. Governments and global institutions continue to monitor the situation closely as geopolitical risks remain elevated. -- Visit: www.jadetimes.com Photo Credit: -- #Putin #Russia #MiddleEastConflict #GlobalEconomy #EconomicGrowth #COVID19 #EnergyPrices #OilPrices #GlobalTrade #SupplyChain #Inflation #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #BusinessNews #Finance #Markets #WorldEconomy #EconomicOutlook #CurrentAffairs #Investment #GlobalImpact #NewsUpdate #Trade #MarketVolatility #RussiaNews

Fed’s Jefferson: Middle East conflict to have limited impact on US oil demand -- Philip Jefferson said the ongoing Middle East conflict is expected to have only a limited impact on U.S. oil demand, despite heightened geopolitical tensions and volatility in global energy markets. He noted that while the conflict has contributed to fluctuations in crude oil prices, the overall effect on domestic energy consumption is likely to remain modest. -- Jefferson said the Federal Reserve continues to closely monitor developments in global energy markets, as sustained increases in oil prices could influence inflation and broader economic conditions. However, current assessments suggest that U.S. economic activity and oil demand remain relatively resilient. -- Economists say the United States' diversified energy production and strong domestic demand provide a buffer against external supply shocks. Even so, prolonged instability in the Middle East could still affect fuel prices, inflation expectations, and financial markets if geopolitical tensions escalate further. -- Visit: www.jadetimes.com Photo Credit: -- #FederalReserve #Fed #PhilipJefferson #MiddleEastConflict #OilDemand #USEconomy #OilPrices #EnergyMarkets #GlobalEconomy #Inflation #CrudeOil #BreakingNews #BusinessNews #Finance #Markets #EnergySecurity #EconomicOutlook #CurrentAffairs #Geopolitics #WorldEconomy #Investment #NewsUpdate #Energy #USNews #MarketUpdate
