  • OPEC将重新评估尼日利亚产油能力

    非洲, 2017/08/28 石油输出国组织(OPEC)成员国和非成员国的联合部长级监测委员会(JMMC)周四会后表示,由于OPEC成员国和非成员国的积极执行“原油减产协议”,国际原油市场出现了积极向好的局面。同时,委员会将邀请尼日利亚和利比亚派代表出席9月份召开的会议,汇报两国的原油生产情况。     OPEC会议主席Khalid Al-Falih在俄罗斯圣彼得堡召开的第四次JMMC会议上表示,中国、印度和美国等国家拉动了国际原油需求,但美国的需求前景不明朗,尼日利亚和利比亚不在削减原油产量的名单上,导致原油供需存在很大不确定性。Al-Falih强调,“委员会应当关注尼利两国不断增加的原油产量对全球供需平衡的影响。虽然大家都在按照协议削减产量,积极平衡国际原油市场,但总有人在拖后腿。”
  • 巴基斯坦34亿美元亚行资助项目面临延期

    巴基斯坦, 2017/08/28 由于实施进度延期,近半数亚行(ADB)资助项目出现不确定性或被列入观察清单,涉及项目金额约34亿美元。这反映出当前巴基斯坦政府管理出现了问题。据报道,大多数遭遇延期问题的项目主要为发电和输配电项目。 报道称,亚行表示,这些项目执行进度欠佳主要是由于合同签约时间和上半年支付目标完成方面的延迟。在亚行批准项目和项目最终实施之间往往会有半年到一年的时间被浪费,这主要是由于政府机构工作效率不高所致。

  • 今年秋脱欧谈判的关键节点

    欧洲, 2017/08/23 2017年秋天英国政界脱欧形势会更加紧张。英国内部,特蕾莎梅内阁将不得不解决脱欧问题上的内部分歧,工党则需要解决其在硬脱欧和软脱欧立场之间的矛盾。英国和欧盟之间,10月9日起双方可能进入谈判关键期,巴尼耶将决定在脱欧谈判最关键的三个方面(财务清算、公民权利、爱尔兰边境)是否已经取得充分进展,如果他认为足够充分,则谈判进入第二阶段,开始讨论英欧之间的贸易安排。几个关键时间点如下:    8月28日,下一轮脱欧谈判在布鲁塞尔召开。外交官们评估该场谈判及9月18日谈判都难有进展。9月7日,英国政府的退欧法案(即“大废除法案”)将在下议院进入二读程序,9月11日进行投票。这将成为保守党力量的一个测试。9月24日,德国进行大选。现时支持率指出默克尔将继续持有权力,默克尔的清楚优势将进一步说明欧盟能够克服疑欧保护主义危及。工党的年度会议同一天会在布莱顿召开。10月1日,保守党召开党内大会,特蕾莎梅有望保持首相和保守党领导者位置,并将明确其脱欧谈判思路。一年前她在大会上的演讲给出了硬脱欧的路线图,但现在正受到攻击。10月9日,脱欧谈判进入关键期,巴尼耶必须决定是否进入第二阶段。10月19日,欧洲理事会在布鲁塞尔召开会议,欧盟各国政府首脑将听取巴尼耶的公告,并决定脱欧谈判以后方向。
