The EU officially announces giving up Russian oil
By the end of the year, the EU will halt 90% of oil from Russia
and will soon discuss freezing the remaining 10%
Consequently, oil was supposed to flow only through the southern branch of the Druzhba pipeline
which passes through Ukraine, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic
The EU also rejects to import petroleum products
Officially, the sanctions embargo any import of Russian oil and petroleum products
but there are a number of exceptions in which Hungary, unlike other interested parties, is not mentioned
The list of petroleum products is not described, indicating that the import of any petroleum products is embargoed
According to the document
the sanctions embargo the purchase, import or transfer of oil or petroleum products
directly or indirectly, if they are exported from Russia or of Russian origin
Neither may related technical assistance, brokerage, financing
financial assistance or any other service be provided directly or indirectly
That is, it is officially embarged for everyone to import oil through Druzhba
Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, as well as Poland and Germany
which buy Russian oil specifically for the Schwedt refinery with a capacity of 11.6 million tons
The embargo imposed until December 5, 2022, i.e. for a period of 6 months
does not apply to short-term oil supply transactions in the near future
which were entered into and carried out before this date, as well as for contracts concluded before June 4
2022, or additional contracts necessary for the implementation of these contracts
The requirement is that EU countries must notify the European Commission before 24 June
for short-term transactions within 10 days after their completion
For petroleum products
this exception is valid until February 5, 2023, ie for a period of 8 months
The embargo does not apply to the purchase of marine oil and petroleum products from third countries
if they are only loaded or sent from the Russian Federation or transit through Russia
provided that the origin and owner of such goods is not Russian
This item is suitable, for example, for Kazakh, Turkmen or Azerbaijani oil, shipped from the ports of Ust Luga and Novorossiysk
Finally, the last paragraph states: The embargo does not apply to
“oil delivered by pipeline from Russia to Member States until the Council has decided that the embargo should be applied
unanimously, on the proposal of the High Representative, with the support of the Commission
This would likely leave room for Hungary, and possibly other countries that
wish to obtain such a special permit to purchase oil through the pipeline

Gold maintains its stability during the last week
Gold prices have not been able to increase the bullish momentum over the past week
In fact, the precious metal has not changed much
Overall, gold has seen its downtrend since March and paused in mid-May, rising 3.11% before paring gains
Gold continues to struggle, and a downtrend stall could potentially be a sign of profit-taking
as markets don’t often move in straight lines
In May, traders’ attention seemed to shift from inflation problems to recession
This has led to markets severely reducing expectations of a 2023 Fed rate hike
Along with dwindling odds of a 50 basis point rate hike in September
As a result, Treasury yields and the US dollar weakened
When these assets are moving in the same direction, in this case down
that calls for optimism about gold and vice versa
But last week, we saw the Fed remain confident about the economic outlook
and undermine expectations for a September halt
As a result, bond yields rose again and the US dollar may rise again
Last Friday, a strong non-farm payrolls report beat expectations, confirming the central bank’s confidence
Unsurprisingly, gold is falling as the US dollar rises and Treasuries prices rise
Next week, US CPI report for the month of May will have a big role
Headline inflation is still expected to remain at 8.3% y/y, as in April
The core measure, which does not include volatile food and energy prices
is expected to slow to 5.9% y/y from 6.2% previously
