Oil prices increased due to escalating tensions between Iran and the US after US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced that all Iranian airlines will be shut down from Wednesday. This move involves cutting off fuel, landing services, and ticket sales to Iranian airlines, effectively excluding them from the US dollar system. Investors are watching closely for diplomatic developments as Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian plans to address the United Nations and engage in talks with world leaders. The outcome of these talks could influence oil prices, with potential for either easing tensions and lowering prices or further escalation pushing prices higher.
