People's Financial News, March 31 — Tianshan Aluminum stated at the earnings briefing on March 30 that the sudden situation in the Middle East has created a dual impact on the global aluminum supply chain: on one hand, regional conflicts have intensified the stability risks of electrolytic aluminum production, and market concerns about supply disruptions have increased; on the other hand, rising energy prices have directly driven up the production costs of overseas electrolytic aluminum companies, especially aluminum plants in Europe and the Middle East that rely on natural gas for power generation, significantly increasing cost pressures.
