SerbiaThe article reports that oil prices have slightly increased, with Brent crude reaching around $72 per barrel and US crude (WTI) at approximately $69 per barrel—levels last seen before conflicts in the Middle East late last year. This rise follows the gradual normalization of commercial maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, aided by progress in talks between the United States and Iran. The article notes that Saudi Arabia has resumed exporting crude oil at around 90% of pre-conflict levels, as more tankers safely pass through the strategic waterway, indicating a gradual return to normal regional oil supply conditions. The UAE has also restored oil exports to pre-conflict levels using tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz without special attention, along with an oil pipeline bypassing this narrow waterway.
