# World News: EU Gas Market Braces for U.S. Moves

> Dutch TTF front-month gas fell 3.7% to 88.19 euros per megawatt-hour after Democrats won control of both chambers of the US Congress. Traders are now watching whether the Trump administration resumes strikes on Iran or continues diplomacy, after prices had recently climbed above 100 euros.

## Why it matters

Renewed strikes on Iran could disrupt Gulf LNG exports through Hormuz, pushing European gas back above 100 euros and tightening competition with Asian buyers. Diplomacy would keep the market easing, so geopolitical risk remains the main price driver.
