Urged India to buy Russian oil at sea to ease supply fears: US energy secy

The US has urged India to buy Russian oil already floating at sea and redirect it to Indian refineries to "tamp down" fears of supply shortages and price spikes amid the ongoing West Asia conflict, Energy Secretary Chris Wright has said. However, the move, he said, is a short-term, pragmatic effort to stabilise the market and did not signal any change in Washington's policy towards Russia. In an interview with CNN on Sunday, Wright said he, along with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, had spoken to Indian authorities about buying Russian crude cargoes currently waiting to be unloaded at Chinese refineries. "India has been a great partner through this. I did call up the Indians, as did Treasury Secretary (Scott) Bessent, and said there's a whole bunch of oil floating waiting to unload at Chinese refineries. "Instead of having it wait six weeks to unload there, let's just pull that oil forward, have it land in Indian refineries and tamp this fear of shortage of oil, tamp the price ..

Ayatollah Khamenei's son Mojtaba named Iran's new supreme leader

Mojtaba Khamenei, a son of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei who was named as his successor on Sunday, had long been considered a contender to the post even before an Israeli strike killed his father and despite the fact he has never been elected or appointed to a government position. A secretive figure within the Islamic Republic, Mojtaba Khamenei was not seen publicly in the days after an Israeli airstrike targeting the supreme leader's offices killed his 86-year-old father at the start of the war. Also killed in that strike were the younger Khamenei's wife, Zahra Haddad Adel, who came from a family long associated with the country's theocracy. Mojtaba Khamenei will now have a central say in Iran's war strategy, with the country's powerful paramilitary Revolutionary Guard answering to him. The announcement of his selection came after signs of a rift among Iranian officials as Iran awaited the decision by the 88-seat Assembly of Experts, a group of clerics that ...
