From a statement issued by the Ministry of Economy of El Salvador: [GRAFICA caption = "Click to interact with graphs"] Added to the geopolitical tension generated by the US' decision to withdraw from the nuclear pact with Iran, is the increase in demand from Asian countries, especially China, which is the country that consumes the most crude oil and derivatives.Its latest report indicates that it has reached record levels with 9 million barrels per day, representing 10% of world consumption and more than a third of the entire Asian continent, leaving less product in the market. This, combined with the tight production restrictions of the OPEC and non-OPEC countries led by Russia and possible sanctions against Iran, is pushing international prices upwards, causing the country to experience increases for the present fortnight.
