Novak: the United States did not turn to Russia on the possibility of lowering oil prices

“I’ll tell you frankly: no one has contacted us.

The media reported that there were such requests (from the United States), but I do not know if they are true.

In fact, we are absolutely unaware of what negotiations are between Saudi Arabia and the United States, ”RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the OPEC + alliance at the last meeting made a collective decision to continue to increase production by 400 thousand barrels per day per month, as the current terms of the agreement assumed.

Earlier, Novak commented on the idea of ​​regulating the global gas market.
