[2nd day Reuters]-Iranian oil minister Zanganane said on the 2nd that the energy market should eliminate politics and prevent unilateral and illegal interventions. The state-run Iran news (IRA) reported.
He arrived in Moscow to attend a meeting at the Gas Exporting Country Forum (GECF). While he was ready to meet with the Saudi oil minister during his stay in Moscow, he expressed his view that the Saudi side was disappointing.
In Saudi Arabia, an oil facility was attacked on September 14. US and European Saudis claim that Iran was involved, but Iran denies it.
Sangani oil minister said that Saudis exaggerated the damage caused by the attack, "I do not think that the attack stopped half of Saudi oil production."
“I think Saudi relies on political exaggerations to claim that the world's energy security is at stake,” he said.
