Oil prices climbed back above $100 a barrel on Thursday, against a backdrop marked by the lack of a deal between the United States and Iran, according to Euronews.
The surge in crude coincided with declines in European stock markets during the same session.
At the same time, US Treasury bonds were experiencing what was described as their worst quarter since 1994, with the yield on the ten-year note reaching its highest level since 2007.
The combined movement of higher oil prices and deterioration in the US debt market reflects the uncertainty gripping global financial markets in the current geopolitical context.
The report did not specify the particular reasons behind the lack of agreement between Washington and Tehran.
