That slump was reversed Wednesday when Beijing promised it would pursue policies to boost its sputtering economy and keep financial markets stable.\n\nAnalysts say that China is attempting to strike \"a delicate balance\" between supporting Russia rhetorically but without further antagonizing the United States.\n\nBeijing and Moscow share a strategic interest in challenging the West. However, Chinese banks cannot afford to lose access to US dollars, and many Chinese industries cannot afford to be deprived of US technology.\n\nWhile China is Russia's No. 1 trading partner, Beijing has other priorities. Trade between the two countries made up just 2% of China's total trade volume. The European Union and the United States have much larger shares, according to Chinese customs statistics from last year.\n\nChina's currency, the yuan, doesn't trade completely freely, moving instead within bands set by officials at the People's Bank of China (PBOC). Last week, they doubled the size of the ruble trading range, allowing the Russian currency to fall faster.\n\nIf China allowed Moscow to convert its yuan reserves into US dollars or euros, \"that would clearly help Russia's current impasse,\" García-Herrero noted. However, \"the reputational risk of potentially breaching Western sanctions would be a huge step for the PBOC to take and therefore makes it highly unlikely,\" she said.\n\n\"The long-term gains of moving closer to Russia might not match the impact of Western investors suddenly losing interest in China,\" she added.\n\nIn response to CNN's request for comment, China's foreign ministry reiterated Beijing's opposition to sanctions adding that China and Russia will maintain \"normal economic and trade cooperation.\"" | 0.94 | t3_thea35 | 1,647,635,072 |

Russia was pumping about 10 million barrels of crude per day, and exporting about half of that, before it invaded Ukraine.\n\n\"The implications of a potential loss of Russian oil exports to global markets cannot be understated,\" the IEA said in its monthly report. The crisis could bring lasting changes to energy markets, it added.\n\nThe IEA, which monitors energy market trends for the world's richest nations, said that refiners are now scrambling to find alternative supply sources. They could be forced to reduce their activity just as global consumers are hit with higher gasoline prices.\n\nSo far, there's little sign of relief. Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are the only producers with significant spare capacity. Both countries are part of the 23-member OPEC+ coalition, which also includes Russia. OPEC+ has been increasing its collective output by a modest 400,000 barrels per day in recent months, but often fails to meet its own targets.\n\n\"The long-running inability of the bloc to meet its agreed quotas, mostly due to technical issues and other capacity constraints, has already led to sharp draws in global inventories,\" the IEA said. If major producers do not change course and open the taps wider, global markets will be under supplied in the second and third quarters of 2022, the agency warned." | 0.96 | t3_tg0bxf | 1,647,485,952 |
