Russian officials had earlier this week said that some of the c. 150k assembled troops were being withdrawn \u2014 claims that US officials are now describing as false. The US estimates Russia to have mobilized another 7k troops \u2014 and alleges the country is still looking for a pretext to invade.

Egypt is both a major non-Nato ally of the US and a top-five buyer of Russian arms, Danylyuk points out. He adds that Russia should be barred from owning uranium deposits abroad \u2014 again namedropping Egypt for its under-construction <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/27a6e1fc-82cd-4dd5-abf4-5f1d9d018f3d\">Dabaa nuclear plant<\/a>, which is contracted to Russian state-owned nuclear company Rosatom.

And it\u2019s likely not stopping there: \u201cThere is a scenario where we could vault past USD 120, even as high as USD 150,\u201d one analyst was quoted as saying.
