According to a statement from the agency, the administration of US leader Donald Trump is closely monitoring the consequences for the world oil markets of the last week's OPEC + meeting.
“Attempts by government entities to manipulate oil markets underscore the importance of the United States as a reliable energy supplier for partners and allies around the world. The United States, as the world's largest producer of oil and gas, can and will resist this instability, ”the report emphasizes.
Earlier, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said that the scenario for withdrawing from the agreement to limit oil production was worked out and the current situation in the oil market is within the forecast.
On March 9, oil prices fell more than 30% after the OPEC + meeting, which culminated in Russia's withdrawal from the deal.
Later, Brent and WTI crude oil recovered about a third of the collapse during the auction.
