Russian crude faces delivery hurdles in India as sanctions bite
Tuesday, 16 January 2024 Russian crude oil tankers face issues delivering at Indian ports due to price cap enforcement by G-7 nations and challenges with shipping entities. India buys from Iraq, UAE, and Saudi Arabia when Russian prices don't conform. US sanctions on Russian oil traders tightened the price cap. Refiners trim oil imports from Russia as discounts aren't attractive.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has denounced recent viral videos depicting US President Joe Biden as confused at public events, labelling them as “cheap fakes.” Her comments follow the spread of several clips on social media, which have ignited debates about the president's mental fitness. In one widely shared video, President Biden appears to struggle with sitting down during a D-Day memorial event in France. Commenters suggested he seemed “completely lost” or experiencing “some kind of episode.” Another clip from a G7 meeting in Italy shows Biden wandering away from the group during a skydiving demonstration, only to be guided back by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

In a recent statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected the peace terms proposed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, labeling them as an ultimatum. During a meeting with senior Russian Foreign Ministry officials, Putin demanded that Ukraine cede four regions that voted to join Russia and guarantee it will never join NATO. Zelensky, attending the G7 meeting in Italy, emphasized that these demands are unacceptable and tantamount to surrender. The Kremlin, however, described the offer as a comprehensive and constructive proposal. As the conflict continues, the gap between Moscow's demands and Kiev's position remains wide, with peace still a distant hope.
