Tensions are rising between Russia and Ukraine over a possible new military escalation, which could disrupt commodity and energy flows. S&P Global notes that Western sanctions on Russia's energy sector could tighten if fighting escalates in eastern Ukraine.
So far the escalation has not moved commodity markets.
Ukraine transits Russian gas and crude to Europe, so a sanctions or disruption scenario could tighten European energy supply and lift gas and oil prices. Grain buyers should watch for spillover into Black Sea shipping and wheat and corn risk premiums.
