When Washington Threatens Trade: Trump's Words and Mallorca's Situation

Answer

Why would fuel prices in Mallorca be affected by a political crisis abroad?

If supply chains become tighter or more expensive, those increases often filter through to transport, aviation and day-to-day business expenses. That is why political tensions far away can still matter on the island.
