RIA Novosti: OPEC + countries voted to cut oil production by 2 million barrels

“Formally, they have not yet agreed, but they have already voted,” the agency was told.

As Bloomberg previously reported, the OPEC+ monitoring committee recommended a 2 million barrel cut in production.

According to CNN, the US government has been trying to dissuade OPEC+ countries from deciding to cut crude oil production.

Senator Alexei Pushkov expressed the opinion that the production cuts would be "a direct response to the introduction of a ceiling on the price of Russian oil, as well as to the idea of ​​ceilings as such."
