Italy to tell EU terms for UniCredit's BPM bid remain despite deal collapse
ROME - Italy will tell the European Union the terms it imposed on UniCredit's bid for Banco BPM remain in place even after the collapse of the deal, sources said, responding to criticism from Brussels that could ultimately lead to disciplinary steps. UniCredit withdrew its offer for BPM on July 22, blaming government intervention for scuppering the 15 billion-euro ($17.3 billion) transaction. Days earlier, the European Commission warned Italy that it could have breached EU rules by using its so-called golden powers aimed at shielding key assets to rein in UniCredit's takeover plans, giving Rome 20 working days to reply to its objections. Italy will send a letter of reply to Brussels as early as this week which will invoke national security considerations for the use of the golden powers, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters. The European Commission was not immediately available for comment. In the letter Italy will also say it has no plans to withdraw the decree that set the conditions for the collapsed deal, arguing that their legitimacy was largely upheld by an Italian court ruling this month, the sources added. Among several conditions, Italy told UniCredit it had to halt activities in Russia, except for payments to Western companies, by early 2026, to prevent savings collected by Banco BPM from benefiting Moscow's economy as it continues its war against Ukraine. The court ruling due to be referenced in the letter to Brussels axed some of the terms imposed by the government, but upheld the Russia-related conditions. Italy also asked UniCredit to keep investments in Italian securities of BPM-owned fund manager Anima Holding, a provision that UniCredit said the court had made non-mandatory. While the EU said corporate mergers should be vetted at the EU level to prevent member states taking unjustified measures in their regard, Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti argued national security was not for European institutions to judge. Should the government fail to persuade the European Commission that its use of the golden power rules was justified, Brussels could adopt a decision ordering it to revoke the conditions. Italy's use of its 'golden power' legislation is also under EU scrutiny in a separate process called EU Pilot. ($1 = 0.8672 euros)

Kremlin says it 'noted' Trump's statement on shorter deadline for a ceasefire in Ukraine
The Kremlin said on Tuesday that it had "taken note" of a statement by US President Donald Trump that he was shortening his deadline for Moscow to sign up to a ceasefire in Ukraine or face sanctions. Trump set a new deadline on Monday of 10 or 12 days for Russia to make progress toward ending the war in Ukraine or face consequences, underscoring frustration with President Vladimir Putin over the 3-1/2-year-old conflict. Asked about Trump's statement on Tuesday during a conference call with reporters, the Kremlin kept its remarks short. "We have taken note of President Trump's statement yesterday. The special military operation continues," said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, employing the term that Moscow uses for its war effort in Ukraine. "We remain committed to a peace process to resolve the conflict around Ukraine and to ensure our interests in the course of this settlement." Trump threatened on July 14 to impose new sanctions on Russia and buyers of its exports within 50 days, a deadline which would have expired in early September. But on Monday, during a visit to Britain, he shortened that deadline and said: "There's no reason in waiting... We just don't see any progress being made." Trump, who has held half a dozen calls with the Kremlin leader since returning to the White House in January, also said he was "not so interested in talking any more". Peskov declined to comment on that remark.

Crude oil prices climb above $69.2 as U.S.-China trade truce and EU deal support market
Oil prices extended their upward trajectory on Tuesday, buoyed by optimism for enhanced economic activity following the U.S.-EU trade deal, a potential truce in U.S.-China tariffs, and President Donald Trump's expedited timeline for Russia to conclude the Ukraine war. By 00:00 GMT, Brent crude futures increased by 24 cents, or 0.34 percent, reaching $70.28 a barrel (currently trading above $69.2), while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude rose 22 cents, or 0.33 percent, to $66.93 a barrel (currently trading above $66.62). Both contracts had settled more than 2 percent higher in the preceding session, with Brent achieving its peak level since July 18 on Monday. Support from U.S.-China trade truce The trade agreement between the United States and the European Union, while imposing a 15 percent import tariff on the majority of EU goods, averted a catastrophic trade war between these significant partners that could have reverberated across nearly a third of global trade and dampened the outlook for fuel demand. Oil prices also gained support from reports of a potential extension of the trade truce between the U.S. and China, with senior economic officials from both nations convening in Stockholm on Monday for over five hours of discussions. These talks are anticipated to continue on Tuesday. In the meantime, Trump set a new deadline on Monday, stating '10 or 12 days' for Russia to make headway toward ending the war in Ukraine or face potential sanctions. He has warned of sanctions against both Russia and purchasers of its exports unless notable progress is achieved. Tuesday's subdued movements reflected investor caution in advance of the Federal Reserve meeting commencing later that day, alongside a range of significant U.S. economic data expected this week. Read more: Oil prices rise to $68.92 as U.S.-EU trade deal eases demand concerns OPEC+ supply compliance discussion Market participants were also evaluating the progress of the U.S. trade deal ahead of Trump's imminent deadline. The U.S.–EU agreement, announced on Sunday, imposes a 15 percent tariff on most European exports to the United States, reduced from an initially threatened 30 percent. It includes a pledge from the EU to purchase $750 billion worth of U.S. energy products in the upcoming years. Analysts indicated that the dual factors of diminished trade uncertainty and long-term demand commitments enhanced investor risk appetite, thereby supporting oil prices. On the supply front, an OPEC+ panel has urged full adherence to established quotas as a ministerial meeting on August 3 prepares to deliberate on a potential production increase for September. Investors remain cautious as they anticipate U.S. economic data and the Federal Reserve policy meeting. The central bank is set to commence its two-day gathering on Tuesday, with expectations to maintain interest rates within the 4.25 percent to 4.50 percent range.
