Crude climbed a second day ahead of talks between the U.S. and Russia to resolve the crisis in Syria, a conflict that’s bolstered concern that Middle Eastern oil supplies may be disrupted. Crude rose 1 percent as U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry met in Geneva with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to discuss a plan for Syria to surrender its chemical weapons. President Barack Obama has made their use the rationale for a potential attack on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s war-making ability. Assad made what may be unacceptable conditions for the U.S., saying that threats and arming rebels must end.
