Russia redirects energy exports to Asia as Middle East conflict and attacks reshape global oil flows

Russia is shifting its energy exports away from Europe following attacks on its shipping and political pressure, redirecting supplies toward Asian markets. Simultaneously, supply disruptions from the Middle East conflict are prompting major importers like India to increase purchases of Russian oil. This realignment illustrates how regional conflicts and security incidents are reshaping global energy trade flows, with Russia finding alternative buyers as European markets become less accessible.
