WTI – Ukraine Crises<\/span><\/h2>\n

On Friday, the North American WTI crude was up by 2.01% at $101.50 a barrel, boosted by the ongoing tension between the Western powers and Russia over Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The US Secretary of State John Kerry and the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met in Paris over the weekend to discuss on how to ease the ongoing tensions.<\/p>\n

“Both sides made suggestions of ways to de-escalate the security and political situation in and around Ukraine,” Kerry said in Paris on Sunday and also said a progress in easing the tension between the nations would include withdrawing the Russian forces from Ukraine boarders.<\/p>\n

“You’ve seen a range of troops massing along that border under the guise of military exercises, but these are not what Russia would normally be doing,” US President Barack Obama said in Rome on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Western powers have guaranteed to impose tougher sanctions on Russia\u2019s energy, financial and military industries if the Russian troops go further into Ukraine.<\/p>\n
