What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Europe is increasingly shifting its jet fuel imports from the Middle East to Nigeria due to supply disruptions. While shipments of nearly 900,000 tonnes of jet fuel from Asia are scheduled to arrive in the coming months, this is expected to reduce shortages. Europe has since turned to alternative sources, including Nigeria and the United States, after disruptions to Middle East shipping routes.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The shift reflects Europe's vulnerability to supply disruptions in the Middle East. High jet fuel prices, which rose 27.8% last month, are driven by higher crude oil costs and tight diesel markets, negatively impacting Europe's energy budget. Furthermore, officials in Nigeria stated that high energy costs affect purchasing power globally, including in Europe.
