The gold market has benefited from significant safe-haven demand as Russia's invasion of Ukraine enters its fifth week. Even if the war in Eastern Europe is resolved. The conflict has become a critical pivot point that is changing the global geopolitical landscape and financial markets.

"The overall fear in the market is not going away anytime soon and that will continue to support gold Gold has established solid support around $1,900 and a strong trend is emerging even if geopolitical tensions start to ease."
The war has caused nations to draw new lines between allies and opponents and globalization trends are being disrupted as countries look to develop their own supply chains, which have broken down because of sanctions western nations have put on Russia and Western governments are increasing their military spending, which will drive deficits higher.

The country is a vital partner for Belgium’s gem trade

The European Union has not yet discussed a possible ban on the Russian diamond sector, Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo announced on Friday upon his arrival at the EU summit. De Croo stressed that Western sanctions “must have a much bigger impact on the Russian side than on ours.”

“I have not yet seen a proposal to ban diamonds on the negotiating table. I want to emphasize: Belgium will not block this decision, but you need to make sure that it will harm Russia and not the EU countries. There will be no point if the flow of diamonds just goes to Dubai, appropriate international solutions are needed,” he said.

Belgium is one of the key importers of Russian diamonds for its developed jewelry industry. Earlier, a number of European media outlets reported that the country blocked EU’s sanctions discussions on the import of Russian diamonds.
