Putin: Russia, Opec Cooperation to Continue

摘要

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that Russia will continue to cooperate with Opec to manage global oil supply, even though Moscow and Opec kingpin Saudi Arabia have different views about oil prices. Putin, speaking to reporters at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, did not explicitly say that Moscow will back an extension of current production cuts into the second half of this year, although it is ultimately expected to do so.
