Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed with the President of the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, during a phone call today, the decision of some Western countries to impose restrictions on Russian oil prices, and issues related to bilateral trade and economic cooperation between the two countries.
The Kremlin press service stated in a statement reported by Russia Today website that it was stressed during the call on effective cooperation between Moscow and Abu Dhabi, within the framework of the “OPEC Plus” group, with the aim of achieving stability in the oil market.
The statement said: “Effective joint action was referred to within the framework of OPEC Plus to ensure the stability of the global oil market, and satisfaction was expressed for the continuous implementation of the decisions agreed upon by all countries participating in the group agreement.
The European Union, the Group of Seven and Australia recently issued a decision on setting a ceiling for the price of Russian oil at $60 a barrel, which Russia strongly rejected, stressing that it would greatly harm global energy markets.
