The price of the Mexican export mixture closed this Tuesday at 119.62 dollars per barrel and reached its highest price since mid-July 2008, when international crude oil prices reached the highest levels recorded so far.
The price of the Mexican mixture has increased steadily in recent days due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as well as the markets' fear of a probable hydrocarbon shortage in Europe.
Since last February 24, the day Russia began the invasion of Ukraine, the price of the Mexican mixture has increased by 32%, equivalent to 29 dollars per barrel.
This Tuesday, the increase in the international price of crude oil occurred after the United States announced a ban on imports of crude oil and hydrocarbons of Russian origin.
