The calls of the foot of Trump to Opec, more or less cordial, according to the times, occur quite frequently. The last date was in February, when the occupant of the White House had declared: “the world can’t redeem a rise of the price” and had called on the cartel to keep her “quiet”.
The Opec and its partners, including Russia, are engaged in an agreement for the reduction of their production in order to maintain high prices on world markets. Since January, the price of crude quoted in New York jumped by 28.6 percent and that of oil listed in London took up 23.9%.
