International News
1. Putin: Russia supports peace talks on Ukraine issues
Russian presidential candidate and current President Vladimir Putin told reporters that Russia supports peace talks on Ukraine issues if other countries want to seriously build long-term relations between countries. Asked if Russia would be willing to cease fire in Ukraine at the request of French President Emmanuel Macron, Putin responded: "I've always been saying it, I'll repeat it again. We support peace talks, but not just because the enemy is running out of bullets. Rather, if they really, seriously and for a long time wish for peace, good-neighbourliness and friendship between the two countries, not a one-and-a-half-to-two-year moratorium for rearmament. This is a very serious question. (Sputnik)

Oil demand is expected to rise by about 1.5 million b/d this year, slightly above historical trends, driven by jet fuel and petrochemical demand and regional demand in countries such as India, analysts including Martijn Rats said. Since the beginning of the year, time spreads have steadily recovered and refining margins have been supported, suggesting a certain degree of tightness in the market.
