Oil prices were mixed as traders cautiously awaited US President Donald Trump's decision on tariffs, a move that could escalate tensions in the global trade war, analysts said.

There are also growing concerns about supply, after Mr Trump threatened to impose secondary tariffs on Russian oil and raised the possibility of attacking Iran.

Official data on US crude oil inventories from the Energy Information Administration (EIA) is due to be released later on Wednesday.
