Putin discussed with the President of the United Arab Emirates attempts by the West to impose a ceiling on prices for Russian oil

This was reported by the press service of the Kremlin.

The parties noted the effectiveness of joint work within the framework of OPEC + to ensure the stability of the global oil market.
